Send us Fan MailWhat is the true opposite of love? Hate or Fear? How does it affect a child when their first emotion is fear and not love?What happens when the very person loving you is the one instilling that fear? We're peeling back the layers on this complex subject, starting with early childhood experiences where fear is instilled by those who should be our protectors. We're talking about the strange paradox of a world that keeps revolving despite personal tragedies and how it feels like we're stuck in time while everything else moves forward. We're also talking about the power of self-love and self-talk in overcoming fear. Whether it's about giving ourselves the grace to stumble or the pep talk to stand up again, we're sharing our insights on how inner strength can diffuse fear. We're discussing the importance of having trustworthy people around and how they can be either a source of love or an abuser for those who can sense fear. To emphasize this, we talk about Trisha Lott-Williford's upcoming book "You are Safe now: A Survivor’s Guide to Listening to your Gut, Healing from Abuse, and Living in Freedom.
