You Don't Have to Forgive to Heal

You don’t have to forgive someone to heal from what they did to you.

In this episode of the Living Deeply Podcast, I challenge the idea that forgiveness is a mandatory part of healing. Sometimes healing means forgiveness, but sometimes it means acceptance, boundaries, distance, indifference, and choosing to move forward without giving someone absolution.

We’ll talk about the difference between forgiveness and release, why anger doesn’t automatically mean you haven’t healed, and why you can accept what happened without approving of it. Most importantly, healing belongs to you—and you get to decide what it looks like.
