Summary

How do you deal with your past? Welcome back to the Love & Relationship Podcast, a hotline style show where we tackle all your questions about love, relationships, and mental and emotional health — with short, bite-sized, practical answers. Today on the podcast we’re talking all about dealing with your past. Today’s caller wants to know how to appropriately look back at her past and deal with some of the past baggage that she’s carrying today. My co-host today tag-teaming this question is Mary Marantz! Mary has had to take some time to do some work, reflection, and understanding of her own past…and we talk through the importance of looking back in order to move forward. Because sometimes you have to go backwards in order to go forwards. If you have any baggage, family dysfunction, emotional wounds, or past trauma — I think this episode will challenge and encourage you to begin to do the work!
