Most people have experienced feelings of not being good enough, feelings of rejection and being abandoned, but how we manage these negative feelings and lead a healthy life can be the difference between being happy or not.

Regardless of what traumatic event lead you to experience these fears (for me it's being adopted), there are consequences, and fallout that you personally experience, but sadly, those around you can suffer at the hands your of unhealed trauma as well.

One thing I am a huge advocate for is NOT 'seeping our pain onto those who didn't harm us'. We have a responsibility to be aware of what we project onto others and how we manage our emotions and reactions. Unhealed trauma can lead to all kinds of relational and personal challenges ranging from neediness, insecurities, bullying, and abuse. This is why I continuously pursue my healing around being given up, it's my role to find my strength in the story I chose to live out...

This episode is raw, it's my story and I invite you to grab a coffee and share my journey in being adopted and how to overcome feelings of abandonment and not being good enough.
