Behind the Mask: Dismantling the "Strong" Persona

Unmasking the strong persona isn't just about being brave enough to take off the mask; it's about discovering strength in vulnerability. Join me on this heartfelt journey as I peel back layers of the "have-it-all-together" facade, revealing the impact of childhood traumas and societal pressures that sculpt our emotional armor. Dive into this episode of the From Surviving to Thriving podcast, where I shares personal anecdotes, therapeutic insights, and practical steps to dismantle the persona that hides our true selves. I candidly discuss the hard truths of my own journey, from therapy revelations to redefining relationships with loved ones. Let us embrace vulnerability as a path to genuine strength. I hope this will help you find the courage to redefine what true resilience means. Remember, it's okay to ask for help and be honest with those around you.
