Forgiveness. Just hearing the word might stir something in you—anger, resistance, or maybe the weight of something unresolved. Forgiveness isn’t easy. It’s not soft. It’s not about letting anyone off the hook. Forgiveness is a battle—a brutal, internal fight to break free from the chains of resentment, reclaim your power, and step into a future unburdened by the past.
In this powerful episode of Resilient Wisdom, we challenge everything you think you know about forgiveness. You’ll learn why holding onto anger is slowly killing your focus, energy, and potential, and why forgiveness is the hardest—and most powerful—choice you can make. This isn’t about forgetting or excusing the past; it’s about mastering your emotions, setting boundaries, and using forgiveness as a tool for clarity, strength, and growth.
We’ll walk you through:
• The hidden cost of carrying resentment and how it sabotages your life.
• The truth about forgiveness: why it’s not weakness, but the ultimate act of resilience.
• The science behind forgiveness and how it transforms your mind, body, and performance.
• A practical roadmap to forgive without forgetting and build boundaries that protect your peace.
• How to channel pain into purpose and use forgiveness as a weapon for your future.
This episode isn’t about quick fixes or feel-good platitudes. It’s a deep dive into the hard truths of forgiveness and how it can radically transform your life. If you’re ready to stop living in the shadow of the past and reclaim your strength, clarity, and focus, this is the conversation you need.
Your future is waiting. Will you take the first step? T une in now.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
