Manage episode 424565996 series 2672522
Today we delve into the common issue of clients avoiding confrontation with their past traumas due to the fear of being labeled as 'playing the victim'. We discuss the importance of facing and acknowledging past hurts like trauma, abuse, or betrayal to avoid being perpetually victimized by them. I outline four crucial steps: admitting the impact of past events, recognizing their effects, discussing them with a trusted person, and finding value in the experiences. By following these steps, you can overcome fear, build self-confidence, and transform your past challenges into positive motivation for personal growth. Join me as I help you embark on the journey of reclaiming and reshaping your life’s narrative.
