The Painful Truth About Regrets, Told Through a Broken Finger || H&K with Monica Packer

from About Progress · host Cloud10

Monica Packer opens up about a regret that's still a little raw — literally. After falling down the stairs at 33 weeks pregnant, breaking her finger not once but three times, and going through surgery wide awake at 37 weeks, she discovered something unexpected in her recovery: the scar tissue left behind wouldn't budge, no matter how hard she worked at it. It's a story about a broken finger on the surface, but underneath, it's about how we hold onto our regrets, why healing from them takes real daily effort, and how self-compassion makes all the difference. A must-listen for any mom who's ever felt stuck in her own scar tissue.
