9. I Am Not What Happened to Me: Discovering My Identity Beyond The Suffering

Guess who's back at the table? Chris! Remember him from episode 6?In this deeply personal episode, Chris breaks down the transformative journey of separating our identity from our pain. What happens when we stop defining ourselves by what we've survived? What if the truest version of who we are has been waiting beneath the stories of hurt, our upbringing, and what we were told?This is a conversation about remembering - not who the world told us we were, but who we’ve always been beneath the suffering. It’s about releasing shame, reclaiming our voice, and learning how to live from a place of truth instead of trauma.Whether you're in the thick of healing or standing on the other side of something heavy, this episode invites you to take a breath, reflect, and begin (or continue) the deep work of becoming who you truly are - not what happened to you.We would love to hear from you! Please take a moment to drop questions and contact us with your own personal experience of reclaiming who you are beyond the suffering.
