Forgiveness might be a simple word, but it packs a punch when it comes to shaping our lives. In this episode of The Goodness Chick, Erin Lawler Patterson takes you on a journey through the ups and downs of forgiveness, exploring its impact on mental health and relationships. Erin, an experienced addictions counsellor and motivational speaker, shares her thoughts on why forgiving is crucial for moving forward rather than staying stuck in life's ruts.

Erin uses this metaphor to illustrate how holding onto grudges can weigh us down emotionally. The episode doesn't shy away from acknowledging the complexity of forgiveness. It's not about erasing past hurts but about choosing to let go and grow.

She also highlights how these choices affect not just our own lives but those around us. The conversation is peppered with relatable anecdotes and metaphors, like stepping in piles of figurative poop when we're mired in negativity. Erin challenges listeners to reflect on their own experiences with forgiveness and consider its role in improving their quality of life.
Whether you're dealing with family dynamics or personal struggles, this episode offers a fresh perspective on how forgiveness can lead to healing and freedom. Erin's candid approach makes the topic accessible and engaging, encouraging you to take the first steps towards forgiveness. So, if you're ready to lighten your emotional load and enhance your relationships, this episode might just be what you need.
