38. From Reacting to Empowerment: Changing Your Mindset with Olivia Martinez
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Sometimes, things happen in childhood that we tuck away so deeply, we convince ourselves they no longer matter. We grow up, move forward, and tell ourselves we’re “over it.” But just because something is buried doesn’t mean it’s healed.

But behind the polished exterior, she carried a deep, unexplained void. Despite all the boxes being checked, she felt unseen, unloved, and stuck. It wasn’t until life presented her with a breaking point that she realized old wounds from the past were still shaping her present.
