We are all messy; what being a therapist taught me

God + Mental Health Podcast

In this episode, Roslyn steps away from the usual series to share a more personal message about her perspective of feeling messy and imperfect. She reflects on her journey as a therapist and as a person, emphasizing the importance of self-compassion and the understanding that we're all just trying to figure life out.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Vulnerability is a Gift: Sharing your struggles and feelings is essential for mental health and should not be seen as a burden. Building supportive relationships is crucial.
  2. Self-Worth: No matter what you've been through, you are worthy of love and support. Roslyn emphasizes that nothing can separate us from God's love.
  3. Overcoming Judgement: It's important to stop harshly judging ourselves and others for their experiences. Life is a lifelong journey of healing and growth.
  4. Presence of God in Pain: Even in the hardest times, God is faithful and present, providing comfort and reassurance.
  5. Support Systems: Quality relationships contribute significantly to our well-being and longevity. Investing in these connections is vital.
