About this listen

 In this conversation, Steph Flores challenges the common belief that happiness is only attainable after healing. She explores the intertwined nature of healing and happiness, emphasizing that joy can coexist with pain and that one does not need to be fully healed to experience happiness. The discussion encourages listeners to redefine their understanding of both concepts, highlighting the importance of allowing oneself to feel joy throughout the healing journey. Takeaways
  • Happiness is often seen as a finish line, but it can coexist with pain.
  • Healing is not a linear process; it happens in layers and spirals.
  • Joy can be part of the healing process, not just a result of it.
  • You don't need to be fully healed to experience happiness.
  • Happiness is not the absence of pain, but the presence of permission to feel joy.
  • The belief that you must be healed to be happy is a form of self-abandonment.
  • Emotions can coexist; joy and grief can happen together.
  • You are worthy of joy and peace right now, regardless of your healing journey.
  • Healing is deeply personal and messy, and it looks different for everyone.
  • Letting yourself feel joy is a vital part of the healing process.
