Forgive Yourself
How Do I Know I Have Fully Forgiven?
February 16, 2024
Today, I address a question I recently received, "How do I know I have fully forgiven someone?" As a forgiveness coach, I share my insights on the misunderstood nature of forgiveness and its power to transform lives. And this question is quite common. "It doesn't make what they did right, it doesn't condone their behavior, it doesn't mean you reconcile… it means that you love yourself enough to do the work for you, not for them." Thanks for listening, and please share with someone you know who might benefit, I appreciate it.

Today, I address a question I recently received, "How do I know I have fully forgiven someone?" As a forgiveness coach, I share my insights on the misunderstood nature of forgiveness and its power to transform lives. And this question is quite common.

Through my own healing journey, I've developed a process combining psychology and radical forgiveness principles. This approach helps people release past pain and reclaim emotional freedom. Forgiveness is not forgetting, but learning from experiences to avoid repeating harm.

"There is a way that we can learn from it. So, we don't stay stuck in the pain of that memory, guiding us to move forward without feeling the chains of attachment to the past." 

I discuss identifying unhelpful beliefs and patterns in order to break free from them. Drawing from my life, I demonstrate the value of separating emotions from memories themselves. I also touch on subconscious memory's role and the relief forgiveness brings.

This compassionate discussion is perfect for anyone struggling to forgive betrayal, abuse, or other trauma. Listeners will gain clarity on forgiveness, learning to process recurring thoughts, alleviate anger and anxiety, and renew their sense of purpose.

"It doesn't make what they did right, it doesn't condone their behavior, it doesn't mean you reconcile… it means that you love yourself enough to do the work for you, not for them."
