#3: The Origin Story of a Vow: Chris' Story

from Ruck the Way · host Gabe Smith and Chris Furr

We dive deep into a profound personal story. Chris shares a critical thread of his origin story: the childhood fear that led him to form a vow of self-protection and avoidant attachment. He recounts a traumatic incident involving a gun that shaped his early understanding of safety and responsibility, and discusses how this deeply ingrained vow played out in his adult life, particularly in his 25-year marriage. They explore the difficulty and necessity of vulnerability, the work of processing childhood trauma, and the transformative power of grieving past losses to find forgiveness.Know more about our cause: https://www.rucktheway.com/ Subscribe to our Podcast: [suspicious link removed] Meet the founders: https://www.rucktheway.com/about
