Many things (e.g., food, exercise, relationships, bigger cars, houses, bank accounts, etc.) offer temporary relief of the pain we feel inside, whether it numbs you or gives you a false sense of assurance, identity, and purpose. Whatever product we use consistently has its consequences.
However, true healing from potentially painful and traumatic experiences doesn't come from the outside but has its foundation in our identity. And your identify is at the root of why you are here. There is no blame. No guilt. No shame. Your life is a testimony to the truth. The key is accepting the truth. No experiences define you, and you are the master of your emotions and feelings.
You deserve and have the right to experience healing from the inside out.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
