Just because we make mistakes doesn’t mean there’s something broken inside of us.
In this episode of The Emotional Abuse Recovery Podcast, host Allison K. Dagney shares a touching Thanksgiving story that turns into a powerful lesson about self-compassion. While cooking with her kids, a simple mishap with some spilled cheese sparks a moment of reflection. When her daughter scolds her son for the accident, Allison steps in to remind them that mistakes are part of being human and don't make us broken.
This message resonates deeply with anyone recovering from emotional abuse or struggling with feelings of inadequacy. Allison draws from her own experiences and those of her clients to emphasise that believing you're broken only reinforces negative feelings and behaviours. She encourages listeners to reframe their thoughts and see themselves as works in progress, much like a caterpillar transforming into a butterfly. By changing the narrative from 'I'm broken' to 'I'm healing,' you can create a healthier, more positive self-fulfilling prophecy.
This episode is a heartfelt reminder that you're not broken—you're simply growing and evolving.
