In this episode, we explore the messy, human, and deeply healing journey of forgiveness—especially the tender work of forgiving ourselves.We talk about why true forgiveness often requires moving through the full spectrum of grief, and how rushing to say “I’m sorry” can actually bypass real healing.If you’ve ever wondered why forgiveness doesn’t feel instant—or why it takes time to release old hurts—this conversation will meet you with compassion, clarity, and truth.Trigger warning- I mention sexual abuse. No details but it is the origin story of what I needed to learn to forgive.Interested in my private online healing community, Return to Self-love?
