The Twelfth House Friday Philosophies: Unraveling the Spiritual Threads of Post-Traumatic Growth
Jul 28, 2023
37:03
Join us for another episode of Friday Philosophies, as hosts Michelle and Wallis navigate big seasons of change through the lens of Post-Traumatic Growth (PTG), a sister theory to the well-known PTSD.
In this energetic and thoughtful back-and-forth, Michelle and Wallis share their personal experiences — breakups, work heartbreaks, and immigration struggles. They explore building resilience and fostering a "growth mindset" through the unique perspective of PTG.
Post-Traumatic Growth isn't about 'bouncing back', it's about 'bouncing forward'— following a path that comes from questioning our core beliefs, appreciating the little things, and persevering through it all.
