Have you ever stood in the shadow of your own unmet potential, feeling the weight of the person you might have been if ltrauma hadn't left its mark?
This is a reality many face, and in our latest podcast episode, we journey into the process of grieving what trauma stole from us as a way to journey into deeper healing.
Together, we confront the raw emotions of anger and rage that emerge from the unnamed sorrow we carry.
We look at practical writing exercises that can be powerful tools for recovery. We will examine how to craft letters that articulate the deep-seated grief of what we might have become without the trauma we experienced.
We also celebrate who we are today and learn how to see the beautiful qualities about who you are now.
Yes trauma stole so much from so many of us and we need to grieve that. And as we grieve we can also learn to see, fully love, and accept who we are now. And it is from that place that we can start walking into the all the beauty right now in this present moment.
