Why do we play small?Go to HEAL my new mental health and healing blog via this link howmyparentsraisedme.com  for 21 Ways To Spot A Narcissist and the 20 Books you must read To Heal From Childhood Trauma.Shorina was only 14 when she left home to move in with her 18 year old boyfriend. This older boy was highly manipulative.  He isolated Shorina and made her believe that nobody else cared and that if she left him, she would be completely alone.  Shorina didn't believe that even her mom cared, even though her poor mom was beside herself with worry.  Shorina found herself alone, self harming and suicidal and went through some very dark times.  The impact of this trauma left Shorina playing so small in her life, that many years later, Shorina ended up in labour for 5 days with her first child completely unable to speak up for herself to the hospital staff.  You can find Shorina on instagram at https://www.instagram.com/mindfulsoulcollective and via her website https://www.mindfulsoulcollective.comIf you have a story to share for this podcast please connect with me at www.instagram.com/mybigloveproject or send an email to [email protected].  I would LOVE! to connect with you.
