Healing doesn't mean forgetting. It means deciding, at your own pace, what still needs to come with you and what can finally stay behind.Takeaways:Emotional baggage often manifests as a heavy burden that inhibits our true selves.The act of holding onto past grievances can hinder our present connections and empowerment.Acknowledging our emotional pain is the first step towards healing and moving forward.We must discern which emotions serve us and which we are ready to release.Healing does not necessitate the erasure of past experiences; it is a selective process.It is essential to understand that our past does not dictate our future potential.Companies mentioned in this episode:GlueYourLifeBacktoBetter.comBrilliant Beam Media
