Ep. 65 FACE IT (2 Words that will Change Your Life) w/ Lauren Lowrey
Wait, you want me to face my pain!?! Woof!
In the latest AMPstigator episode FACE IT, host Lauren Lowrey teaches you that once you've experienced trauma, the pain doesn’t go away. It just blends with you over time. The difficulty in processing the trauma comes from your inability to move forward.
After we experience pain, we spend our lives trying to return to status quo. We try to get back to who we were before that pain. But we have to realize: We were literally changed by the pain and the person we were is gone.
In this episode, she shares 6 steps to FACE your pain and accept yourself for who you've become.
