Abandonment can leave an incredible wound inside of us. We do our best to bury it and not feel that pain but it leaves its mark on us.

In today’s show, I go over the two types of abandonment and offer steps to heal this wound.     LINKS & RESOURCES:   Audible This week’s show is brought to you by Audible!

123- Helping your Kids Cope with Anxiety with Sharon Selby

Sharon offers some incredible advice for those of us needing help with our children and teens struggling with anxiety and gives...

119: The Only Way Out Is In

“How do I find my way out?”   What are you in? That doesn’t matter! If you’re in a situation that is painful, scaring you, causing you discomfort, no matter of external advice is going to help you get yourself out of it. To dig out, you have to go inside, to find the parts of you that you don’t understand, that keep you locked into a cycle of pain, that prevent you from finding clarity and freeing yourself from the ego of your Adolescent Chair!   I’ve had so many people come...

97: DriveTime Download: Healing Trauma

Trauma comes in many shapes and sizes. From single events to long-running experiences that take away our sense of safety and security. Even if it doesn’t involve physical harm, it can lead toward isolation, depression, severe anxiety, and overwhelm. This week on the show, Michelle is back with a DriveTime Download inspired by the conversation on The Adult Chair private Facebook group to reflect on the nature of trauma and steps we can take to move forward in our Adult Chair!     MORE ADULT CHAIR:   The Adult Chair Website https://theadultchair.com   The Adult Chair Membership https://theadultchair.com/membership/     STAY CONNECTED:   Instagram: @michelle.chalfant   Facebook:...
