The situations we found ourselves in during our youth teach us many things, both positive and negative. But for many of us, many of the lessons we should have learned through our journey from those closest to us were never taught. Because of this, many of us struggle with issues that we’re not proud of, such as anger, struggles with self, overwhelm, and struggle to learn things we may have never truly experienced, such as forgiveness, empathy, and gratitude.

But just because we learned things that may not serve us and didn’t learn things we needed doesn’t mean we can’t unlearn and re-learn. It is possible. I did it, and today I want to support you in doing it. That’s up next.

In this episode, we cover:

• The difference between scorpions and frogs
• Why you can’t expect scorpions to teach you what you need
• What true forgiveness isn’t, and is.
• The role of your inner child
• A useful tool to unlearn and re-learn

About the Host:

Ray Bourcier - Conscious parent coach, stay-at-home father, husband, author, podcaster

A college and university environmental science graduate, Ray grew up in a toxic family and a toxic situation in Northern Ontario, Canada. As a result, he experienced the first of many PTSD events at age five, which would begin his nearly three-decade struggle with anxiety and depression.

Spending most of his life in survival mode without support, he eventually discovered and developed ways to overcome his struggles when nothing else worked.

With a passion for helping others, he made it his mission to help transform the lives and impact the worlds of eleven million people so they too can give their best to themselves, their loved ones, and their career.

An ancient Chinese proverb that Ray loves states, "To know the road ahead, ask those coming back." Ray is on the road back to offer you the support you need every step on your journey so that you, too, will be on the same road back. Ray believes that only those who've walked that road can truly understand the struggles that you go through.

Together, we will become the rising tide that lifts all boats.

Together, we are unstoppable.

In his off time, you can find Ray spending time with his daughter, reading books, watching hockey, and contemplating whether pineapple belongs on pizza.
