Episode #18: Turning Pain Into Purpose

The trauma Korbey White has faced, even before he took his first breath, will leave you shaking your head in disbelief. Yet, just as quickly, falling in love with the story of a young boy who found a way, not only to survive, but to thrive and now helping others do the same.
Everyone has some level of childhood wounds because every child has emotional needs to feel seen, heard, valued, accepted and loved. How those wounds were developed and to what degree varies greatly between individuals. Korbey and I both had abandonment wounds but for very different reasons.
Regardless of the severity, your story is valid because it is yours and your Inner Child needs you to take responsibility to heal so you can find the purpose in any pain that you experienced! Korbey took radical responsibility for his childhood wounds and therefore was able to find the gifts wrapped in very painful packages.
