Previous Episode: 50. Family Estrangement & Going No Contact w/ Janice Formichella
Somewhere there is a mugshot of me after I got arrested at a house party in Seattle when I was 20. There is also a picture of me graduating law school a few years later. Both of these pictures tell a story, and both are true. But how do I make meaning from these stories and these truths? What do these stories tell me about myself and my life?
In this solo episode, I'm talking about how I have come to understand the power of storytelling, identity, and how we can use narrative in harnessing potential and creating our lives.
In this episode I cover:
How our stories about self define who we are and who we are becoming The difference between stories and beliefs How narrative helped me heal and improve my sense of self. How stories shape our beliefs and potential How we can help our kids tell better stories about themselves How to improve the way we see ourselves and the narrative arc of our lives.For more information about sessions, you can reach me at www.restoryatherapy.com
