When We Get Hurt

In this episode I talk about an inevitable part of living life: getting hurt. Not surprisingly a lot of the coping mechanisms we use in an attempt to get rid of the pain are actually just temporarily distracting us from it or simply numbing it before it will return. I go over some of the unhealthy ways in which I have dealt with pain from being hurt in the past and outline several healthy ways to properly process and move through being hurt. We cannot control the actions of others but we can determine how we react and respond. This episode discusses the ways in which you can do that and not only be okay after getting hurt but to thrive and become a more empowered person.
