054 - Your Greatest Desire Is Often Your Deepest Wound
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You're feeling a desperate itch for a thing you know, deep down, you'll never fully possess. This is the kind of craving that comes from a core wound. And spoiler alert: It's not going to go away unless you start tending to it.
In today's episode, we're speaking to that part of ourselves - the uncomfortable reality that our most intense yearning is likely directly connected to an old, neglected fragment of our lives. We'll chat about four common patterns that show up for many of us, but there are many more to explore beyond them. Whatever yours may be, they're a signal - so let's learn how to read them.
