The School of Greatness · Lucy Hale: Her Darkest Years Came at the Peak of Fame · 30 Apr 2025 podcast

And you were like attracting the same type of- Same person. Like this is what I mean about the lesson will keep repeating until you- Until it got really painful.

That's so powerful the way you just worded that. And I did talk therapy for many years and we did a lot of inner child work, a lot of inner child work, a lot of like meditations where I visualize myself as a little kid. It's interesting to do for other people too, because if you're angry at someone, if you do a meditation or you can even journal about it, envision their inner child.

You can't be mad.

Everyone's wounded. We're all wounded. Okay. The thing I just posted today says, the irony is that your light grows brighter the more you embrace your darkness. Isn't that crazy? The only way out is through. It's so, so true.

I think as a kid and still sometimes now, I think definitely as a child, I didn't feel like I had emotional safety or I felt like I was, I was a very emotional child, very complex. Didn't know what to do with these big feelings. Like I'm talking like really questioning some big stuff as a small kid. And I think like purpose of life.

Like I felt, I remember telling my mom when I was very small, I was like, I feel like I'm going to die. Really? I feel like I'm gonna die young. I'm talking like three four years old crazy stuff And so there was a darkness there. There was a desire to To know and I was curious about a lot and I and I and I never really felt like I had a lot of people to connect to and I'm sure like

seeing a kid with like that kind of energy probably freaked people out, you know, as an adult, it's cool as hell. Like, I love it. I love that about me. But as a, as a little kid, you know, you didn't feel emotionally safe. No, I felt like if, if I were to express what I was truly feeling, um, there wasn't always an outlet to go to. Like I, I, I,

I spent a lot of time in my room crying because like that is where I felt safe to like actually be myself. And I think that's also why I spent a lot of time alone. I also want to say my parents are amazing, by the way, I'm not saying it was just, I don't feel like it was very different than a lot of other kids I knew.

And, um, and that's why I think music came into my life because I think it became this like safe space for me. But I, but I also think, um, if i were to be sitting next to little lucy i think she just wanted to be understood and seen and um able to cry if she wants to able to laugh if she wants to like just free i think i just wanted freedom um why did you not feel free

I think without going too deep, I... How do I word this? I think a part of me was really scared of what I was feeling, my intensity. I still get scared of my intensity sometimes. But also, my parents were divorced when I was young. And so I think when something like that happens for a kid around like four or five...

I didn't understand what was happening, but of course I'm absorbing the energy of that. And I wanted to make my dad and my mom happy. And so I was like a shapeshifter. I could do whatever I needed to do. I realized early on, if I acted this way, that made certain people happy. If I acted this way, it made certain people not happy. So I'm not going to do that. So I'm just going to be this person.

And so I maybe took on some emotional burdens really young. that at all anymore. I've sorted through that. But, but also I think even before I moved to LA, I was just, I was growing up quickly and this is a lot of people's story, right? Like I'm sure as parents, I'm not a parent yet. I'm sure when you're a parent, you're going to screw up, you're going to mess up.

They were doing the best they could. Um, and I have been really lucky that they've been very, my sweet mom, She's been so patient with me over the years and I've always been very supported by both my parents. I think at times maybe not understood by them. I think we're all different people, but I have a really good relationship with my mom and a good relationship with my dad too.

I see my parts of them in me. I definitely know what I've gotten from my dad and what I get from my mom. And it's such a nice place to have forgiven. This is what I mean about not blaming. How many people do you know are like, well, my so-and-so did this and that's why I'm this way. It's like, okay, keep telling yourself that and you're going to keep being miserable.

So I was like, I'm going to stop blaming all the characters in my life.

the last couple of years.

Yeah. I mean, this is new.

This is what I mean about the victim mentality. It was, that's what it was like. Oh, well I came from a child of divorce. It's like, yeah, Lucy. So it was like 90% of America, you know, like get over it, deal with it. Don't, don't, don't, don't wallow in it anymore. Okay. That's the cards you've been dealt. What did it teach you? Everything's a learning experience.

Everything that happens to you, good, bad, ugly, pretty, whatever is there to teach you. If you choose to take that route. And I do. It's exhausting. Sometimes I'm like, ah, ignorance is bliss. But as you know, once you're on that path, there's no looking back. You don't stop. You don't just say, nah, I'm good here. No, keep climbing. Keep going.

Exactly.
