In this episode of Conversations with Thomas, we get intimate with the emotional bruises that won’t stop showing up—the patterns, inner critics, and silent spirals that keep tugging at our peace. Thomas explores the concept of pain points—not just passing discomforts, but persistent sore spots that often hold the key to our healing and personal power.
With warmth, humor, lived truth, and a dose of science (no eye glaze, promise), Thomas walks us through five essential ways to identify your core pain point—by tracing patterns, decoding the inner critic, exploring old narratives, and reclaiming the parts of yourself you’ve been trying to outrun.
You’ll hear:
• A personal story about what a missed text really meant
• A journaling exercise to help you gently meet your pain
• Research from the APA and Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett that reminds us why unhealed pain repeats
• A powerful quote from James Baldwin to anchor you in resilience
Oh—and if you’ve been trying to prove your worth, this episode might just convince you that your power has nothing to do with performance.
Bring your journal. Bring your truth. Nervous giggles welcome.
