The Intentional Parents Podcast The Life-Long Journey of Healing from Generational Trauma, Eternal Perspective and the Power of “But God” (Interview with Sally Lemos, MS, LPC)
This week, we welcomed Sally Lemos, MS, LPC back on the show for a continued conversation around generational trauma, this time focused on the path to healing.
Drawing from her own history of significant childhood trauma, Sally walked us through what it can look like to find healing and restoration, offering a raw account of her transition from denial and blame to naming and claiming. Sally’s healing process didn’t involve a clean, step-by-step checklist, but rather an openness to the One who saves — the One who provided resources and people to sit with her in the pain. We delve into the crucial aspects of healing, emphasizing the importance of recognizing when professional intervention is necessary and the need to avoid spiritual bypassing. Sally stresses that genuine healing demands personal transformation before one can effectively support others, and that it is a lifelong process. Together, we looked to heaven as the ultimate source of comfort, knowing that keeping an eternal perspective will give us strength in the midst of present struggles.
Our conversation with Sally was raw, vulnerable and filled with hope — as again and again, we returned to the comforting reality: “But God.”
