Description
As the calendar has moved to another new year, many rest their hopes and desires on creating something different for themselves. While this intention is beautiful, for most a new year does little to help them leave their feelings of being stuck or triggered in the past, and rightfully so. As we focus our attention on resolutions and kicking this year’s tail, I sat down with Britt Frank, the Psychotherapist who literally wrote the book on being stuck in your life to help us see ourselves in a new light. In an open and honest conversation about triggers, feeling emotional stuck, Britt Franks shares the deep lessons she learned from her own “stuckness” from past trauma. If you want to make this year the best year yet, you first have to identify where you are, what you want, and how you are willing to process it. This conversation kicks off the new year in a way that shows each of us anything is possible once we know where we are. Warning: this episode includes language not suitable for children.
