My guest today is my cousin Angela Little. She and I discuss the broken heart syndrome and how it affected our lives and several of our relationships. We delve into how we both experience a great loss and how it took some work on our part to pull ourselves up by the boot straps emotionally and physically. Getting back and showing up for yourself can be challenging. Angela shares how "EVOLVING" is an ongoing thing for her. We also bounce off each other with support. Angela shares from a spiritual standpoint, and me still being a little stuck. However, you get to see parts of me growing and evolving between the 2 experiences that I feel, caused me to experience a broken heart syndrome phases in my life. Getting candid about our pas sometimes hard to do. You can find yourself releving experiences you would like to forget. I personally feel that when I speak about my past I can't sometimes utter the words of what I experience and I healthy way and therefore I try not to talk about it because it reminds me that I have a lot more growing to do. If it's not that I need to grow then it may still be that I need to heal or I haven't healed enough. Angela share some delightful insight on her growing through this experience. After this episode I encouraged Angela to consider being a voice for others because of her spiritual walk, grace and grounded perspective on life. I became triggered a few times reminding me of my blind sighted view of the male and female roles. You would definitely enjoy this episode seeing me lose it and come back a few times. Reminding me that this ain't that episode. But definitely stay tune to watch me grow through life and heal from my trauma. I'm very proud that I am facing these demons I shut down from shame and people pleasing.
