In this episode, we’re diving deep into the topic of judgment—not just how we judge others, but how that judgment can be rooted in our own unhealed trauma. What happens when we speak too soon, assume too much, or react from old wounds instead of present truth?
We explore the power of staying silent and letting things unfold without trying to control them with our assumptions. Sometimes, silence isn’t avoidance—it’s wisdom. And sometimes, that urge to judge is really a response to pain that hasn’t been named yet.
You’ll hear a gentle challenge: “Don’t judge me because someone hurt you.”
Let’s talk about how healing can help us judge less, love more, and live in peace.
⸻
What You’ll Hear in This Episode:
• Why judgment is often rooted in fear or past hurt
• How silence can be a spiritual and emotional strategy
• Signs your judgment might be a trauma response
• The difference between discernment and projection
• How to move from judgment to compassion
⸻
Reflection Prompt:
• Where might your past pain be shaping how you see others?
• When was the last time you let silence speak instead of rushing to respond?
⸻
Take a Moment:
If this episode spoke to you, share it with someone who needs the reminder that peace begins when judgment ends. And if you’ve ever been misjudged, know that you’re not alone—and you don’t have to carry someone else’s wound as your identity.
