We talk about the abuse so much, we sometimes forget about the actual healing process. That’s why I’ve invited my long-time friend and seasoned guest Bob Hamp back on the Flying Free Podcast. Bob knows how painful and necessary the healing journey is, and he has some incredible golden nuggets of wisdom to share today that you do not want to miss.

Some key points include

• How Bob found himself in the advocate world and his backstory
• Why trying to find resources for your abuser really isn’t helpful
• How our bodies were designed to help protect us
• What the word “introject” means and how it relates to you
• A parable about a hiker that will help you with your healing
• How your childhood dreams can help you heal
