The Truth About Healing That Nobody Wants To Hear

This week is a little different.
No guest. No script. Just me sitting down to answer some of the biggest questions about healing, toxic family systems, misogyny, masculinity, forgiveness, grief, social media, and everything in between.
I talk about why I no longer believe healing works the way I once thought it did, why toxic systems protect the people causing harm, why forgiveness isn't always necessary, and the question I wish we all asked each other more often.
If you've ever wondered whether you're doing healing "wrong" because you're still struggling, this episode is for you.
In this episode we explore:
Why healing doesn't mean you'll never struggle again.
Why we keep chasing love from parents who couldn't give it.
Why families protect the person causing harm.
Toxic relationships and the systems that enable them.
Patriarchy, misogyny, and why people become defensive.
