*The Healed Trader (Ep. 6) - What Is Your Trauma?*
*The Healed Trader | June 8th, 2024*
What is the healed trader all about?
I’ve learned a lot over the last year and being a teacher at heart, I naturally thought I should share that with anyone who wants to listen.
In this week’s episode we talk about childhood traumas that shape our lives.
I now understand that one of my biggest traumas led me to attaching my self esteem to how much I achieved in my career, and it made me a workaholic.
Whilst this may have led to material success and wealth on paper, it meant that I neglected things that were more important for my overall well being and happiness...
Once you understand you traumas, you can work on healing them. There is no shame is going inward and exploring the childhood needs that were not met. We all have the power to "re-parent" ourselves and grow, no matter how old we are...
