How do you know who you can actually trust with your healing?
If you've ever felt hesitant to open up in a program or with a coach because you weren't sure they'd really get it, friend, that instinct is worth listening to. There are so many well-meaning people out there who can talk about abortion recovery — but talking about it and having actually walked through it are two very different things.
In this episode, we're talking about why lived experience isn't a nice-to-have when it comes to choosing who walks with you through your healing — it's non-negotiable. I'm sharing a story from a few years back when I was asked to lead a singles group at our church. It was a great idea, and I already had a full plate between remote work, ministry, my husband, and our kids — but more than that, it just wasn't my calling. I didn't have the lived experience for it. The same principle holds true for abortion recovery.
We'll walk through why a coach or program with actual lived experience understands your pain points and struggles in a way others simply can't, how they understand your true desires and wishes for healing, and why that shared experience means far less chance of a wall going up between you and your healing.
