Do you feel stuck in cycles of brokenness? Many of us unknowingly repeat the mistakes of our parents and grandparents, passing on pain and suffering. No matter what has happened in the past or what mess you might be in today, you are not destined to carry on your family’s wounds, unhealthy behaviors, or toxic relationships. It doesn’t have to be this way. Your legacy can be different, and the change starts with you. Kristen Hallinan is on the show sharing the tools, truth, and hope offered in her book Legacy Changer. Join us to:
– understand the brain and body science of emotional wounds.
– heal from generational pain.
– set boundaries in your relationships―the way Jesus did.
– lead your family toward a more hopeful future.
Quotes:
I’m living a much different life and story than what I might have otherwise than my childhood, and my upbringing had me on the trajectory for.
I was raised in a home that was emotionally disconnected and unhealthy.
I had developed unhealthy coping mechanisms.
I want other women to taste the freedom I have come to know as a result of my healing journey.
What do I want to allow to continue on to the next generation?
I want to speak words of life over my kids.
I have to take good enough care of myself to take care of them.
Trauma is when two things have occurred. When, at the time of the event, you felt helpless, and when you have not fully processed the event.
We disassociate as a means of survival.
Shame is one of the sneakiest and most insidious attacks of Satan.
Guilt says I did something wrong. Shame says I am wrong. Shame is never from God.
The pain from long ago is still costing us now.
God created us, so He’s the only one who gets to say who we are.
Therapeutic forgiveness means whether or not a person is sorry that you are choosing to forgive them to free yourself and not be trapped in anger or sadness.
Biblical forgiveness requires reconciliation.
So much as it is up to us, we should seek peace.
Boundaries are biblical and kind.
Let’s pass down a legacy of love.
