On this week's podcast Annie Powers and I discuss the impact of childhood neglect on an individual's emotional health and behaviour as an adult, and how it can lead to anger, people-pleasing, and emotional unavailability.
We also talk about the stigma of mental health and self-harm, including the importance of seeking professional help, the impact of being medicated at a young age, and the therapeutic qualities of nature.
Additionally, we emphasize the importance of personal responsibility and choice in how one shows up each day, the importance of forgiveness, and being open to people. Finally, we provide advice on how to overcome the feeling of being stuck and out of control in life, including starting small, setting achievable goals, and listening to one's gut instincts.
