from Still With Purpose · host Amanda and Christy
“Whenever I have a need to be right, it drastically impacts my attitude, response, and grace given and received. - Amanda SharpIn this episode, along with sharing the #1 tool Amanda has learned in over 20 years in personal development, they tackle one of the most common but destructive habits in relationships, faith, and personal growth — the need to be right. Amanda shares what she learned 20 years ago in a personal development seminar: that the #1 human “disease” is being right… and how it ties to deep, often hidden “crappy core beliefs” we’ve carried since childhood. When you cling to proving your point, you keep yourself chained to old hurts, waiting for apologies that may never come. Here, you’ll learn how releasing the grip on being “right” can free you from emotional prisons, restore peace in broken relationships, and help you finally move forward — without needing anyone’s permission. You’ll hear raw stories of divorce, betrayal, and even decades-long grudges — and how letting go of the need to have the last word opened the door to true forgiveness and emotional freedom. Whether it’s conflict with your spouse, kids, coworkers, or your own self-talk, this episode will challenge you to ask: Am I fighting for truth… or just fighting to win?Go to our Website for all of our links - www.stillwithpurpose.comJoin our Community on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/StillWithPurpose/Instagram - www.instagram.com/stillwithpurposepodcastEmail us at: [email protected]’s Book - amandasmentoring.comPhotos used in quotes - https://sharpdesignsllc.pixieset.com/sharpdesignsartportfolio/Sign up for our Emails that will encourage you to keep growing. www.stillwithpurpose.comIntro and exit music "Indecision" by Dyalla, used with artist permission, https://www.youtube.com/Dyalla Still With Purpose Podcast
