205. Re-Parenting Ourselves: What Inner Child Healing Really Looks Like

On this week’s She Rises Podcast, we’re sharing our lived experiences of inner child healing, not from theory, but from the quiet, everyday moments where it actually shows up. We talk about the subtle ways we were still parenting ourselves the way we were raised: being hard on ourselves, rushing our healing, minimising emotions, and feeling the need to always be “good” or “strong,” even when that wasn’t true to how we felt inside. If you’ve ever felt frustrated with your healing, disconnected from your emotions, or like you’re doing everything “right” but still feel tender inside, this conversation will help you feel less alone and more understood. tune in for the full scope!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
