Today, we're tackling a complex and deeply personal subject: how to forgive an abuser. Forgiveness is a powerful and often misunderstood concept, especially when it comes to the profound pain caused by abuse. Whether you're seeking to forgive for your own healing or grappling with what forgiveness means in the context of your experiences, this episode aims to provide guidance and support. We'll explore the different dimensions of forgiveness, the psychological and emotional processes involved, and hear some personal experiences Heather has walked through and the path to peace and strength along the way. Forgiveness doesn't mean forgetting or condoning what happened. It's about finding a way to let go of the hold that past trauma has on your life, and reclaiming your power and sense of self. So, join us as we navigate this journey together, with compassion, understanding, and a commitment to healing.
