The Struggle Between Survival and Quality of Life

The Hidden Healing of Emotions -The Heroine's Journey

Returning a shopping cart became an unexpected journey into my soul—this episode is my confession. As I reveal the intricate dance between carrying on with daily life and the echoes of childhood trauma, we traverse the landscape of what it truly means to live well. Amidst intimate revelations, I dissect the quality of life in its many dimensions, including the often overlooked emotional health, sense of community, and the pursuit of personal fulfillment. Despite the progress on the path of healing, some scars remain tender, and it's in the sharing of these stories that we find common ground. Let's venture together into understanding how the past can color our present, and invite you to join me in seeking a life brimming with more joy and authentic connection.
This conversation takes a turn through the byways of our ancestors' villages, contrasting their hardships with the peculiar pressures of modern life. I recount the years spent in a relentless survival mode—fight or flight not just a response but a way of being—often forgetting the necessity of self-care in the face of life's relentless demands. We'll look at how childhood distortions can morph into adult self-judgment and challenge our very identity, and the steps necessary to unravel these cognitive distortions to reclaim the joy and belonging we all deserve. Together, we explore the transformative power we each hold to reshape our realities, to find peace, and to forge deeper connections with the world we inhabit.

This podcast is not meant to take the place of therapy, to diagnose or treat anyone. I have had therapy as recently as 2021 and found it very helpful. I am not a doctor. My only degree is in computers. I am simply sharing tools I have used to help myself grow to become an emotionally healthy person and sharing stories about my journey. Please seek medical help, as I did, if you are unable to cope with life and all that it brings.
