Forgiveness Is For YOU - Overcome Trauma Through Forgiveness

Dr. Carron Silva: Forgiveness Guide, Christian Trauma Coach

Are you struggling to forgive yourself? Do you hold a grudge against someone who harmed you physically, emotionally, or mentally? Do you find it hard to forgive the adults in your life who were supposed to protect you, but didn’t? Do you hold resentment against a whole class of people because you’ve been discriminated against? I’VE BEEN THERE. I KNOW. I’m Dr. Carron Silva, Your Forgiveness Guide. As a woman of faith, I’ve spent the last 30 years seeking healing for sexual, physical, and emotional abuse, and healing from racial discrimination. What I’ve learned is that therapy could only take me so far. I believe that FORGIVENESS IS THE WAY TO INTERIOR FREEDOM, but we cannot do it alone. We need God, and in particular, Jesus, the Divine Physician, with the love of the Holy Spirit, to help us through a process of forgiveness. On this podcast, I talk about all the things that help you develop a lifelong skill of forgiveness and empower you to forgive yourself, others, and God. As a Certified Wholeness and Catholic Mindset Coach, I help you to navigate emotionally challenging situations, cultivate resilience after trauma, and in a nurturing emotionally safe, empathic, nonjudgmental, confidential coaching relationship. Why wait? Freedom starts now. Here’s what you can do: Connect: Schedule a FREE consultation with me at www.drcarron.com Study: Want to explore forgiveness on your own time before digging deep?

    S2E47: From Prodigal to Purpose: Rosa Alejandro's Return to Faith and Forgiveness

    Friends, In this episode, I’m joined by Rosa Alejandro, founder of The Intentional Christian Woman and a woman whose story beautifully embodies grace, courage, and new beginnings. Rosa shares her journey through what she calls her “prodigal daughter” season, a time marked by stepping away from her faith, experiencing the pain of betrayal, and facing the end of her first marriage. With honesty and tenderness, Rosa talks about learning to trust again, choosing forgiveness even when it felt impossible, and how God gently led her back to faith and purpose. Today, she helps women return to God with intention, clarity, and hope. If you’ve ever questioned your faith, struggled with forgiveness, or wondered whether God can rebuild your life after heartbreak, this conversation is for you. It’s a reminder that restoration is always possible — and often begins in the places we least expect.

    S2E44: Beyond Labels: Addiction, Identity and Forgiveness

    Friends,  What happens when the label that once helped you heal begins to hold you back? In this follow-up to S2E43: Alcohol, the Brain and the Holidays, I continues my conversation with Christie Walker, the Catholic Sobriety Coach, who has been sober for nearly 29 years. What began as a practical talk about staying alcohol-free during the holidays evolved into a deeper reflection on identity, faith, and forgiveness. We explore the powerful question: “Do you still identify as a recovering alcoholic after nearly three decades of sobriety?” The answer opens the door to a heartfelt discussion about how recovery — like trauma healing — transforms not just our habits, but our sense of self. Together, we examine how forgiveness, grace, and spiritual growth help us release old labels and embrace who we’ve become. In This Episode The Catholic Sobriety Coach’s honest perspective on long-term recovery and identity How labels like addict or survivor can help at first — but limit us later Why forgiveness allows us to release shame and embrace a new self-concept The role of faith and grace in transforming identity Parallels between addiction recovery and trauma healing Christie Walker's Links:  Website: http://thecatholicsobrietycoach.com/ IG: @thecatholicsobrietycoach Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-catholic-sobriety-podcast/id1658622848 5 Day FREE Sobriety Kickstart: https://the-catholic-sobriety-coach.myflodesk.com/5-day-sobriety-kick-start Connect with Dr. Carron Link to my weekly newsletter.  Need someone to accompany you on your journey to freedom in a shame-free, nonjudgmental space?
