Hey, Brave Table fam! 💕 Are you ready to unpack the emotional luggage you’ve been hauling around all year? In this episode, I’m diving into something so many of us struggle with: healing the inner child within us. Whether it’s the little girl or boy who felt unseen, unheard, or just plain overwhelmed, we’re talking about how to reparent, nurture, and love that part of yourself so you can step into your next evolution. The holidays have this magical (and let’s be real, sometimes triggering) way of bringing up all the feels. From family dynamics to unmet childhood needs, we’ll explore how to pause, reflect, and pour back into YOU. Let’s get into those juicy tools for reparenting, healing, and turning those holiday triggers into empowering transformations. What you'll get out of this episode… Inner child work is about reparenting yourself, not reliving the past. Holiday triggers may invite healing unmet childhood needs. Simple practices like journaling, setting an altar, or reframing thoughts can shift old patterns. Family dynamics don’t define you. You can meet them with love, grace, and zero expectations. Healing is a full-circle journey—whether you’re a parent or reparenting yourself.
