506. Your Inner Teenager Healing Guide
You may remember Bethany Webster from our most recent Camp Almost 30 where she, we have to say, brought the freaking house down. She also joined us in March of 2021, where she introduced the community to the life-changing idea of the “Mother Wound,” and about healing and dealing with the multi-generational trauma that gets passed on to us.Now, she’s helping us to identify another unheard part of ourselves, our inner teenager. By now, the idea of the inner child is totally understood, but our inner teenager still hangs out in there. Like most teenagers, yours is probably misunderstood or completely ignored. That part of you has so much to give and Bethany Webster helps us get on the level to understand those lessons. Tune in.We also talk about:
The undermining and exploitation of teenagers in society
The function of shame
Teenagers’ pressure to grow up fast
Healing the inner teen vs. the inner child
How the inner teen gets activated
Defining and finding sovereignty
Ending friendships that are no longer aligned
Finding peace with your inner teen
