Now I understand when people say that your wounds become your greatest teachers. But I did it intentionally both for me and because I knew that he had this feeling of, well, you can get a lot out in email because I had other interactions with friends that were coming up that I feel, you're going to leave me. Well, that has just run course through my whole life because 20 years ago, we had an interaction where he had sent me by mistake, an email talking about, talking bad about me with a friend of his, you know, using the C word. And I didn't realize, and I stuffed all that down just to move forward in the relationship to be the good guy that I realized 20 years ago, he did the same thing as he just did to me now, where I felt emotionally hijacked in and manipulated me where everything became about me. 20 years ago, he did the same thing. I held on for that for 20 years just to be the good guy, make you feel better.
Ever wondered how childhood chaos can shape your adult life? In this episode of 'Adult Child', Andrea chats with John Steen, an energy healing practitioner who grew up in a turbulent household with an alcoholic mother and emotionally distant father.

This realization led him to Field Dynamics, an energy healing method created by Keith Parker. Now, as a Field Dynamics practitioner, John helps others clear the energetic blocks that prevent them from reaching their full potential. Throughout the conversation, John offers a candid look at his recovery journey, the breakthroughs he experienced, and how energy healing has transformed his life. His reflections on self-abandonment, setting boundaries, and re-parenting oneself provide a fresh perspective on healing from past traumas.
