Hurtful people do a really good job of causing us to feel bad about ourselves.

Not only that, we end up repeating what they said or did to us in our mind over and over again. The emotional trauma can last for months or years.

In this episode I help transform the hurtful messages from others into empowering declarations that help us move on see them for who they really are.
