About the guest :
Katharine Giovanni is an international speaker, bestselling author, cancer survivor, and transformation mentor. A lifelong entrepreneur, she developed a structured forgiveness method used by professionals and individuals to release anger quickly and keep it from returning—by also forgiving the energy around the people, places, years, and objects tied to the memory.
Key takeaways:
-
Forgiveness is for you. It’s not approval or reconciliation; it’s removing someone from your mental real estate so triggers stop and you regain focus.
-
Work a written list, rated 1–10. Start with easy 1–3s (spills, traffic, small slights) and build capacity before approaching 8–10 “unforgivable” cases.
-
One person at a time, in private. Visualize them (or use a chair/photo), say what you need to say, then close with: “I forgive <name>. I forgive the energy around <name>. I forgive myself and the energy around myself and this relationship.”
-
Forgive the energy, not just the event. Clear associated places, objects, bystanders, years, cities, seasons—anything woven into the memory—so the charge can’t reattach.
-
Expect the “closet to open.” If emotion spikes after a first pass, your brain likely surfaced new material. Re-rate, move it to the back of the list, and repeat 24 hours later.
-
Set limits. No more than five releases per night. Fatigue or GI upset can be normal as the body processes stored stress; do sessions near bedtime.
-
Neutral is the goal. Real forgiveness feels like indifference—you can see the name or person and not care.
-
Relapses aren’t failures. If a forgiven “10” spikes later, it’s usually to a “5.” Re-work it and keep going.
