    Forgiveness Sets You Free: Shift Your Mindset About Herpes Part 8

    After a herpes diagnosis, a lot of people do the inner work. They learn, they grow, and they try to move forward. But something can still feel unfinished. In this episode of the Herpes Wellness Podcast, Cat Dupree talks about forgiveness and why it is one of the most overlooked but essential parts of healing. Not forgiveness for someone else, but forgiveness as the step that allows you to stop carrying anger, resentment, and emotional pain long after the diagnosis. You’ll learn why anger shows up in different ways depending on how you got herpes, how it often turns inward, and why no amount of anger changes what happened. Cat also shares how forgiveness is not about excusing the past or letting anyone off the hook, but about releasing what you are still carrying so it stops shaping your life. This episode also introduces a practical forgiveness tool using Ho’oponopono and explains how consistent practice can help your mind and body respond differently over time. You’ll learn: -How anger after herpes diagnosis shows up and why it lingers -Why inner work alone does not always bring emotional relief -What forgiveness actually means and what it does not -How forgiveness helps you move forward without denying your experience -A simple daily practice to help release what you have been holding onto 🧘🏻‍♀️ Ho'oponopono Meditation https://youtu.be/1KFpFQFdM9E 👉🏻 ONLINE COMMUNITY Connect with others and get support from people who get it https://www.herpeswellness.com/ 👉🏻 DOWNLOAD THE COMMUNITY APP App Store https://apps.apple.com/us/app/herpes-wellness/id6746517614 Google Play https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.herpeswellness.community&pcampaignid=web_share&pli=1

    The Truth Teller That Reveals Everything: Shift Your Mindset About Herpes Part 7

    After a herpes diagnosis, telling someone can feel like you’re handing your power over and waiting to see what happens next. Not because you want approval, but because you’re bracing for judgment, rejection, or things to change. In this episode of the Herpes Wellness Podcast, Cat Dupree breaks down why telling someone you have herpes is one of the clearest truth tellers you’ll ever experience. This conversation explores how people’s reactions reveal their emotional capacity in real time, why this moment has nothing to do with your worth, and how herpes can actually act as a filter that saves you time, energy, and emotional investment. You’ll learn: -Why telling someone feels so vulnerable after a herpes diagnosis -What people’s reactions really reveal about them, not you -Why friends and family can sometimes be more judgmental than partners -How to stop seeing herpes as something that takes from you -What clarity gives you when someone pulls away or disappears If you’re living with herpes and struggling with fear around telling someone, dating, or worrying how people will see you afterward, this episode will help you reframe that moment, trust what it shows you, and recognize that clarity isn’t rejection.

    After a herpes diagnosis, it’s easy to start believing your options are smaller. Not because you want to settle, but because you think you have to. In this episode of the Herpes Wellness Podcast, Cat Dupree breaks down what she calls The Scarcity Trap and how it quietly shapes dating choices, relationship standards, and self-trust after diagnosis.

    Courage Builds Confidence: Shift Your Mindset About Herpes Part 5

    After a herpes diagnosis, fear often becomes the thing making your decisions. Not because you’re weak, but because your nervous system learned that playing it safe feels protective. In this episode of the Herpes Wellness Podcast, Cat Dupree breaks down why courage has to come before confidence and how waiting to feel ready keeps people stuck in hesitation, avoidance, and self-doubt. This conversation explores how fear disguises itself as caution, why hiding feels easier than facing uncertainty, and how small acts of courage are what actually rebuild confidence and freedom after diagnosis. You’ll learn: • Why confidence doesn’t come first and never has • How fear shows up as hesitation and “waiting for the right time” • Why avoiding uncomfortable moments increases anxiety over time • How courage changes your emotional state, not just your actions • Practical ways to start practicing courage in real life If you’re living with herpes and feel like fear is quietly limiting your choices, holding you back from love, or keeping you from fully showing up in your life, this episode will help you understand what’s happening and how to start moving forward. 👉🏻 JOIN OUR COMMUNITY Connect with others and get support from people who get it https://www.herpeswellness.com/ 👉🏻 DOWNLOAD THE COMMUNITY APP App Store https://apps.apple.com/us/app/herpes-wellness/id6746517614 Google Play https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.herpeswellness.community&pcampaignid=web_share&pli=1
