Summary
Are you ready to meet your inner child?
More importantly… Do you know who they are and why they matter?
Inside all of us there’s an inner child that was once wounded. And that inner child can have some pretty big effects on who we are and how we function.
Inner child work, also referred to as inner child healing, is a way to address our needs that haven't been met as children and heal the attachment wounds we formed. When you do inner child work, you become open to — and aware of — an entirely new world of possibilities for yourself.
In this week's episode I’m joined by speaker, coach, and entrepreneur Matt Cama to take a look at why understanding your inner child is so important and discuss how you can begin healing your inner world so you can experience emotional freedom in your life.
In this episode you’ll hear:
Why having empathy for ourselves and others is the foundation for the entire healing process [4:15] Who our inner child is, and two of the most powerful questions Matt asks to help. uncover it [6:48] Why he focuses on the inside game rather than the external to uncover patterns showing up in his clients’ relationships [14:41] What happens to our external world when we do the necessary inside work first [18:02] Why Matt feels so strongly that playing and having joy is everything in life and business [20:49] The key things from our childhood that are impacting and influencing our current relationship template [26:58] His process for repairing and loving parts of himself that he’s discovered through the inner work he’s done [34:09] Ways to get the courage to move from awareness to taking action [41:02] A recent relationship check-in that Matt had with his partner, and the critical lessons that he was reminded of from doing this exercise [48:56]

| 0:05.8 | dollar company. Now, what I've discovered after working with thousands of entrepreneurs is that |
| 0:10.6 | the greatest thing standing in the way of success isn't another business tactic or marketing |
| 0:16.3 | strategy. It's your own mindset. Now, I believe that you're meant for more than just the status quo. |
| 0:23.2 | So on this show, you'll feel like you're sitting down with a friend who's here to help you transform your fears and roadblocks into a truly limitless version of yourself. |

| 0:45.0 | Well, I want to start by telling you a little story. I know you're an animal lover too, |
| 0:50.1 | and I just adopted a dog. I've been seeing you posting about some dogs that you feed and stuff. |
| 0:56.7 | I just love that. I adopted a dog a few days ago, and what has been interesting about getting to know her is that she's the sweetest dog, so gentle, so just like has this kind of like little |
| 1:03.3 | girl personality, in my opinion, she's three. But yeah, just a very sweet personality. |
| 1:07.6 | But she also comes with some of her own wounds that I can tell, even just |
| 1:12.2 | sometimes the way I walk. I can tell that it triggers something in her. Yesterday, I tried to take |
| 1:17.1 | her to a cafe because I felt like we were building the trust and we were at that point where she |
| 1:21.7 | could kind of be taken somewhere and hanging with me while I'm working at a cafe. And she kind |
| 1:26.1 | of tripped on her leash a little bit and just |
| 1:28.2 | had a almost like a meltdown. Like if you were looking at her, you would be like, why was that |
| 1:34.2 | reaction so big for something that seemed so small? And it made me think of you and the work that |
| 1:40.3 | you do and how you help people because it feels like that's so much of what relationships |
| 1:46.8 | and healing ends up boiling down to is like, why was that the reaction to something that seemed |
