Alive and Free

What A Masterpiece!


Listen Later

The concept of “healing” might sound appealing, but it’s actually a dangerous trick in disguise. Why? Well, it means you have to believe something is wrong with you in the first place, otherwise healing would never interest you. 

And when you let healing lure you in like a worm on a fishing rod it can actually create more misery, shame, and suffering. 

But it doesn’t have to be that way. You don’t have to “fix” or “heal” anything. Instead, you could just be done with that “masterpiece” of your life, and start painting a brand-new canvas, free from your past mistakes and trauma. 

How do you do this? 

In this episode, I reveal the counterintuitive way to stop judging yourself for your past, and how this unveils a new beauty in life. 

Listen now.
