In the year of 2020 we experienced a world wide pandemic that caused us to go into quarantine. This not only impacted our physical health, but impacted our mental health as well.
Quarantine for me was a dark and lonely place. My anxiety and depression worsened. I felt trapped and detached from the world. But one thing I’ve learned is that we can’t escape pain. We either experience the pain of GROWTH or the pain of staying where we are.
In this episode I want to encourage you that you have the ability to step out of any season of darkness and that it is in our lowest and darkest moments, when we are being CULTIVATED the most.
Do you fear being your most authentic self? Or do you ever make yourself smaller to make others feel comfortable? Often times we set limitations on ourselves because of our past experiences, insecurities, or negative thoughts. I am here to be fearlessly authentic and motivate you to own your story! Join me in this episode as I get personal about my own pain and share lessons I’ve learned from my past experiences. I also want to dedicate this episode to those that are survivors of self-harm and have attempted suicide. You are loved. Forever and always.
Pain and trauma are unavoidable. We go through experiences that will change our lives forever. Erika Terrel joins me in this special episode to speak about her trauma of losing her beautiful child. Despite all her pain and the constant battles of anxiety she faces, she continues to fight, lift up others, and glorify God through it all. She radiates with love, compassion, and grace. She speaks with gentleness and hopes to bring encouragement to every listener. This episode is packed with tools to help you combat anxiety and depression, recognize your triggers, and help you find healthy ways to release emotional pain. Take a moment and step away from the chaos of the world. Get a nice cozy blanket and maybe even brew some coffee or tea, as we dive into Part 2 of “How to use your pain to fuel your purpose.”
There are so many societal pressures to FIND our purpose. We become so overwhelmed by our endless setbacks and unfulfilled dreams that we begin to feel lost in life with no direction. When tragedy hits, our first instinct is to run away or hide the “not so pretty” parts about us. In this episode, we will discover how to not become prisoners of our past, but instead use our pain to fulfill our purpose.
Often times we are afraid of being defined by our own darknesses that we end up locking that part of ourselves away. It is so easy to put energy into simply trying to escape pain instead of confronting it, unaware that by doing so, we’re becoming prisoners of ourselves. Join me in my very FIRST episode where we will discuss on how there is power in vulnerability.
