Embracing Fear and Overcoming Criticism

Does criticism from other feel like deep pain for you? 
I'm sensitive to criticism and sometimes it still makes me cry, even though I've done a lot of work around healing those hurt parts of me leftover from childhood. 
I share a story of being criticized by a stranger yesterday. Instead of breaking me down towards further shame and sorrow, I was able to use this new knowledge about my pain points to get to know myself even better and comfort that inner child, still needing her voice to be heard. 
I share an article from O Quarterly magazine with Oprah and Brene Brown. 
I mention EMFT (tapping), Family Systems therapy, and EMDR therapy. 

Healing is possible!
