Ep.35 Why Judging Others is Really About Our Own Pain
In this episode, we’re diving deep into a topic that hits close to home for many of us: judgment. What if the judgments we make about others are really just reflections of our own unhealed pain?
Join me as I unpack:
The surprising link between judgment and grief.
Why self-contempt can feel like a "safer" option than dealing with disappointment.
How broken dreams and unmet desires shape the way we view others—and ourselves.
Practical tools to trade judgment for curiosity and compassion.
We’ll explore how self-contempt shows up in our stories, why it often feels easier to shut down our dreams, and what it looks like to risk hope again. Through tender honesty and personal reflection, this episode invites you to step closer to your own story, embrace the beauty of your design, and move beyond the pain that’s held you back.
Whether you're navigating the aftermath of a broken relationship, unmet career goals, or simply trying to make sense of a complicated family dynamic, this conversation is for you.
