How to Stop Feeling Like You Need to “Fix Yourself": Chasing Normal

Permission to Love with Jerry Henderson

Apr 15 2024 • 25 mins

Do you always feel like you need to fix yourself? Do you feel like there is something wrong with you, and if you just keep working on yourself, then you will finally feel "normal" and be able to accept yourself?

The feeling that we need to fix ourselves is often a response to trauma and something we developed as a way to stay safe. In response to the painful things we were experiencing, we began to believe that if we could find something about ourselves to "fix," we could then prevent the abuse or pain. The challenge is that this feeling that we need to fix ourselves got wired into our systems, and now we struggle to let go of it.

In this episode, I share how you can finally get FREE from the feeling that you need to fix yourself.

As you listen to this episode, you will discover:

1. Why you always feel like you need to fix yourself.
2. Trauma and its impact on feeling like there is something wrong with us that needs to be fixed.
3. Why trying to fix yourself for others never works.
4. Why trying to fix yourself is an illusion.
5. How to let go of trying to fix yourself.
6. How to see the beautiful person you are right now.
7. A simple mindfulness exercise to let go of the belief you need to be fixed.

I hope this episode helps you in your healing journey and opens your eyes to see how you have never been a problem that needs to be fixed.


I am grateful you are here,
Jerry
