The Power Of Soul Contracts: Choosing Your Challenges
Summary
This week on the Wellness Matters Podcast I talked with a new friend, Wendy Richow. We met a few months ago when we were both in Austin, Texas. She happened to listen to an older podcast of mine explaining my ideas on soul contracts. Wendy texted me saying she has similar beliefs and that she knew she chose her alcoholic parents. I was thrilled when she said she would share her story on the podcast because so many of us have traumatic stories from our childhood but, ironically, many don't know they may have had a hand in it!
The conversation was so effortless and went in many directions. We discussed the importance of self-reflection, forgiveness, and not judging others. We also explored the concept of the villain in our lives being the souls that love us the most. I reflected on my own journey of healing and finding balance between masculine and feminine energies. Wendy shared her personal journey of healing and growth, highlighting the role of protection and guidance in her life. There are so many great nuggets in the podcast and I hope it's able to help you reflect on your idea of soul contracts.
