Ep. 34 Challenges Blocking Access to Sherry's True Identity

Sherry Richert Belul never remembers being happy as a child. Three things troubled her. Feeling out of place because she was different. Her father’s abandonment. And the tremendous amount of heartbreak in the world. Sherry hated herself and thought she was “born wrong.” Depression invaded her life and kept her from joy for years, causing her to contemplate suicide ongoingly. Her reality was that of living in absolute darkness, feeling like a “solid iron wall was closing in on her.” Until one day in a meditation, on one in-breath, when she saw a “pinprick of light.” For that half-breath, she didn’t feel like being dead. Listen to how Sherry transformed her identity into one of the most joyful people you’ll ever meet, while still contending with thoughts of suicide.
