In this episode, I talk about something that most of us will never admit out loud: that we can become addicted to our own suffering. That the wound we carry, as painful as it is, can become the most familiar thing about us, slowing life down to a pace we can control and keeping us locked in the same relational cycles wondering why nothing ever changes. We talk about why forgiveness is not about the person who hurt you but about refusing to let the wound keep damaging you, why real healing ultimately requires community and not just solo work, and how to shift from seeing yourself as the problem to seeing your life as the curriculum that is shaping you into who you are meant to become.
