Friends,

In this episode, my husband, Steve Silva, and I delve into the emotional journey of losing a long-standing friendship following the recent election. As we discuss the power and liberation that forgiveness provides, we explore ways to bridge the political divide, especially during the holidays. We share insights on managing emotions and setting boundaries while emphasizing the importance of self-giving and understanding.

We introduce Pope St. John Paul II's 'The Law of the Gift' and how it embodies the essence of selflessness and share how our brains are wired for community.

If you or someone you know struggles with forgiveness, consider buying my '5 Days to Forgiveness' self-guided audio retreat, available at www.drcarron.com at a special holiday price. Together, let’s explore how forgiveness can renew relationships and bring peace into our hearts and homes.
