Resentment Means “Re-Feeling”: How to Heal Triggers, Let Go, and Find Peace

n this episode, we redefine resentment. It’s not only anger—it’s often re-feeling a person, place, or event your body remembers. We explore how the wounded child carries internalized pain with no sense of time, so old experiences can feel emotionally “present” again—especially in relationships. You’ll hear practical ways to work with triggers gently, including an activation to identify three resentments you still carry. We also address resentments tied to what others did to us and what we’ve done—introducing two pathways of resolution: forgiveness and repentance. Finally, we talk about how fear escalates conflict and how love and care can interrupt the cycle. Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@IHaveAVoice1212

Healing Emotional Wounds Gives You a Choice

n this episode, we unpack a core Transform U teaching: the wounded child is often the key to lasting change. When we internalize pain from past wounds—whether from childhood or later life—our protector steps in to help us cope. The protector may look productive (like overachieving) or destructive (like numbing), but either way, it can run our lives when the wound hasn’t received healing and love. We walk through a practical framework: Wound → Internalized Pain → Protector Behavior → Healing/Love → Choice As the wound is loved and healed, the intensity drops—and what used to be a reaction becomes a choice. You don’t lose your strengths; you gain freedom. Key lines from the episode: * “Use your wounds—don’t let your wounds use you.” * “If I have a voice, then I get a choice.” * “Every time I love the wound, the protector comes down.” Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@IHaveAVoice1212
