Join Rev. Carol in a transformative conversation with Eileen Forrestal, who unveils her journey from a timid, stammering child to a thriving entrepreneur. After a childhood accident, Eileen essentially silenced her voice, leaving her overwhelmed by fear and anxiety. Despite finding refuge in a medical career, her past continued to cast a long shadow over her life. Through deep self-reflection and questioning the limiting thoughts that controlled her life, Eileen courageously faced her fears and rediscovered her voice. Her story is a compelling testament to the power of our thoughts and words, the importance of forgiveness and listening, and our remarkable ability to overcome childhood trauma.
