Summary
The inner child is that part of ourselves that holds the truth of our traumatic pasts. The inner child has been parented by those who may have been unaware they are unaware. When you are raised in a dysfunctional home, the ones in control do not admit that the home is toxic and often rely on denial to keep the sick family system going. The vulnerable narcissistic father, and angry codependent mother, who are stuck in a toxic relationship, can become blind to the damaging effects their immaturity, or lack of awareness is causing their children.
However, if you have been raised by toxic parents, all is not lost. Your inner child is an innate, authentic aspect of you that you can learn to honor and connect with at any time. Often, wounded adult children are able to far more for others than themselves. We can benefit from this dynamic by perceiving our inner child as an actual little person within, that is worthy of our love, protection, and compassion.
It is my hope, that this episode allows you the ability to begin your inner child healing journey.
Dear One, you are enough, but your subconscious mind may be working against you and by default, keeping you stuck in survival patterns that require that you abandon the self. The 21 Day Inner Child Journaling Program can help you begin that journey back to the divine inner child.

| 0:39.6 | So today, we're going to be talking about how you can heal your inner child. |
| 0:44.7 | So we're talking about the inner child and the reality is we all have one. |
| 0:48.5 | So what is the inner child, even though it sounds like an ambiguous concept. |
| 0:53.4 | Speaking from my own experience, the concept of the |
| 0:56.7 | inner child was absolutely radical for me because I was someone who was unaware that she was |
| 1:03.2 | unaware. I was married up until about the age of 36. I had three children. I was the grandchild of alcoholics, which meant that my parents were |
| 1:14.5 | adult children of alcoholics who had done zero recovery work. They were incredibly wounded |
| 1:20.7 | from their childhoods. They suffered amazing trauma, incredible trauma, and never really thought |
| 1:27.0 | about how their traumatic childhoods affected |
| 1:30.3 | them. And so they have me, my brother and my sister. They are also unaware that they're |
| 1:35.8 | unaware, and they parent us the best that they could and the only way they knew how by imagining |
| 1:42.7 | that their childhoods were a lot better than they actually were. |
| 1:46.2 | When you are raised in dysfunctional homes, the people that are raising you don't admit it. |
