Finding Freedom in Vulnerability: Acknowledging Secrets for a Fulfilled Life with Melissa Batt
Does this sound familiar? You've been told to bury your shame and keep your secrets locked away, believing that it's the only way to survive. But deep down, the pain still lingers, and you long for healing and freedom. The truth is, hiding behind a facade only intensifies the torment, leaving you feeling isolated and trapped. It's time to break free from the ineffective action of silence and confront your shame and secrets head-on. Only then can you find the healing, freedom, and purpose in life that you truly deserve.
The weight of carrying a secret, no matter how big, is holding us back. We cannot be free until we surrender the shame that we have been carrying. - Melissa Batt
In this episode, you will be challenged to:
Be intentional with your thoughts & acknowledge your past
Overcome shame by acknowledging secrets that lead to feeling ashamed
Trust in God to help you through the fear and anxiety as you think about the 'what ifs'
Empower yourself by coming to terms with personal shame and secrets.
Have compassion for yourself and give yourself grace
The critical role of a mentor/coach in walking this out
Having a dependable support system is important. Most also find having someone outside of family and friends to partner with crucial. I personally coach several women who are navigating similar situations. I provide support through accountability, talking things out, encouragement, and prayer. I remain neutral, provide valuable feedback, and am willing to say the things most families would not be willing to do and do so with love. Reach out today if you would like to talk.
Take action:
Reflect on your own secrets and shame: Take time to reflect on any secrets or shame you may be carrying and consider opening up to someone you trust. Whether it's a friend, family member, or therapist, sharing your burdens can help you find healing and freedom.
