What happens when your expectations for your missionary’s experience don’t match reality? How do you handle the fear, frustration, and even resentment that can arise when things don’t go as planned? In this episode, I dive into the powerful concept of self-confrontation—the ability to see yourself and your emotions without judgment honestly.
I share my journey of navigating fear and trauma during my son’s mission, how it shaped my nervous system, and why self-awareness is the key to growth. We’ll talk about the difference between self-reflection and shame, noticing when you’re stuck in blame or avoidance, and simple ways to shift into a place of clarity, strength, and resilience.
