What if the turning point on your healing journey wasn’t something massive… but something gentle? In this heartfelt episode, Brandon Bonanza and I dive into the raw and real layers of self-healing—exploring Negative Unconscious Thoughts (NUTs), the importance of boundaries, and how a simple question I asked Brandon years ago shifted everything for him:
"Why are you being so hard on yourself? Can you go easy on yourself?"
We talk about the power of compassion, how inner dialogue shapes our experience, and what it takes to move through healing with grace instead of grit.
💫 Whether you’re just starting your path or deep in your process, this one’s for you.
🧠 Let’s talk NUTs, boundaries, and the beauty of softening.
