"Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth in uglier ways." – Dr. Sigmund Freud

Some people are stuck in a perpetual state of autopilot thinking "that's the way it is." And you may have heard this before but you have to allow yourself to come off of autopilot and FEEL. Really experience life. Oftentimes we carry so much pain and hurt on the inside, yet still continue to wake up each day smiling, while holding it all up.

It doesn’t have to be that way. The hurt you feel signals that you are not living authentically. Negative feelings and emotions is the way our communicates with us and lets us know that our unhealthy patterns are not for our best good. Those emotions remind us to seek answers and ask, "what are these feelings and emotions trying to tell me?"

In this episode, Pamela Elaine Nichols and I uncover ways to heal and break through hidden trauma causing us to feel inadequate, and hold onto self-doubts, and insecurities. Pam also shares her struggles as a mother and the courage required to divorce her husband, which helped her to find true happiness and more purposeful work. We also discuss epic lessons from her book Muddy High Heels: 14 Lessons Learned From My Breakdown, Breakup & Breakthrough that will help you examine your own life. Tune in to receive all the valuable juiciness from this episode.

Remember: You can’t get to the other side without UNCOVERING what you buried.
