Listen "Chapter 3 The Courage to be Seen"
Episode Synopsis
Chapter 3 – The Courage to Be SeenTo be seen is one of the deepest longings of the human heart—and one of its greatest fears. In The Courage to Be Seen, the third chapter of The Heart of a Child, readers are invited to confront the masks we learn to wear from an early age: the smiles that hide pain, the silence that conceals truth, the roles we play to earn acceptance.This chapter explores how childhood experiences often teach us to shrink, to hide, or to perform in order to feel safe. Yet true healing requires the opposite: the bravery to step into the light of authenticity. Through reflective storytelling and gentle guidance, the chapter reveals how vulnerability is not weakness but strength, and how daring to be seen—flaws, wounds, and all—becomes the gateway to freedom.The Courage to Be Seen challenges readers to peel back the layers of fear and shame, to rediscover the child within who longs to be known without condition. It offers practical insights on embracing authenticity, cultivating self‑acceptance, and creating spaces where others can be seen as well.This chapter is a reminder that courage is not the absence of fear but the decision to show up anyway. When we allow ourselves to be seen, we not only reclaim our own wholeness—we give others permission to do the same.Support the show“Beneath The Surface”
