(See The Map of Freedom in Free Resources) The process of growth can overcome toxic shame, false rules, imposed roles, and survival scripts that block a person from being and doing who and what God designed them to be and do.    Arriving at the “places” that “The Map” guides a person toward, takes a person from hearing about something to experiencing something. It is the difference between hearing about the giant Sequoia trees and the experience of standing beneath one.   As stated in the last show notes, the journey: requires many switchbacks is often slow takes a lifetime   Unless something is terribly impaired about us, we all hope to be able to be productive in life and live fully until we die. We all wish to have an impact for good.    We live fully with impact by being able to: give trust God with the outcomes have integrity lead well  The result is freedom.   But this freedom isn’t free. We must walk, work, and persevere with an image in mind and the heart involved to pull us forward every day.    The need for expression Human beings are created to be expressive creatures. We are created to use our minds to articulate and communicate what occurs in our hearts.   Expression communicates the need for connection, along with the boundaries that make us safe to trust connection.   Click here to continue reading the episode highlights.

Suppression is the use of the will, complicated by denial and dissociation, to “protect” one’s self.   Click here to continue reading the episode highlights.

(See The Map of Freedom in Free Resources) The process of growth can overcome toxic shame, false rules, imposed roles, and survival scripts that block a person from being and doing who and what God designed them to be and do.    The Map of Freedom is not so much about learning something as returning to something. We return to how we are made, then we learn to use what we have “rediscovered.”    We return to stewarding how God made us before we steward what God has given us the opportunity to do.   What is the benefit or payoff?  By returning to our origins: We remember what it is like to hope and believe how “things in life could be,” instead of always focusing on what “things have turned into.”  We are defeated less and risk more.  We can picture how the world is meant to be and work towards that. We truly see the “glass as half full,” while dealing in the reality that we do indeed live in a broken place where “hearts break and people die.”   The result is that the reawakened heart brings light to dark places with faith; creative solutions to destructive problems with hope; wisdom to struggles that seem unfathomable; and courage to places of danger.    A child grows into the man or woman that God designed instead of what the world molded them into.   The fourth movement of The Map of Freedom is “Feel Your Feelings.   The first three movements lead to a person into “re-trusting” how God created them and moves him/her to offer or “give” to others they need and others who need you. And “give you” to God, who created you.   Click here to continue reading the episode highlights.

Toxic shame and self-doubt are diminished through community with non-shaming people.   Therapy disrupts the healthy process when boundaries become walls and feelings become weapons— If the therapist and client do not go beyond “what happened” and move into the consideration for the people who through ignorance, denial, or incapability were part of the loss of self, boundaries become walls instead of fences and division is increased. Walls create isolation. Fences create respect. If the therapist helps the client turn feelings into rights rather than the tools that help a person make decisions, they are helping client’s get “stuck” in a victim status, rather than choice making response-ability.   The true self is not the right to not have to feel and make choices. It is the ability to know yourself and become responsible for your own actions that never give up on love and restoration—though a person may have to grieve deeply that the ones they hoped to be in relationship with do not seek restoration, too.    Click here to continue reading the episode highlights.
