Healing Childhood Wounds: Overcoming Fear & Reclaiming Your Authentic Self
Manage episode 472527144 series 3611591
In this episode, I sit down with Angela, who is seeking clarity and reassurance as she navigates the emotional barriers preventing her from embracing her higher purpose. She reveals her lifelong struggle with seeking permission to be her authentic self, an unconscious pattern rooted in childhood experiences of feeling unseen and unheard. Angela opens up about her fear of triggering explosive reactions from others, which has led her to suppress her own needs and emotions.
Through our conversation, Angela recognizes how these fears stem from her relationship with her father and how they have influenced her adult relationships. She shares how her first husband mirrored her father’s volatile nature, making her feel trapped in a cycle of fear. After leaving that marriage, she quickly entered another relationship, seeking safety but without allowing time for healing. This second marriage became a dynamic where she attempted to control her partner, reflecting unresolved trauma.
I guide Angela through a powerful healing process to help her release deeply held childhood pain. Using a visualization exercise, we explore how suppressed emotions can move through the body and dissolve, often in as little as 90 seconds. Angela connects with her inner child, embracing self-acceptance and dissolving limiting beliefs that have shaped her relationships.
Her biggest takeaway from our session? True healing comes from within, not from external validation. By recognizing and releasing generational patterns, Angela is now ready to step into a life of emotional freedom and authenticity.
If you’ve ever struggled with people-pleasing, fear of conflict, or repeating toxic relationship patterns, this episode is for you!
