What if relapse isn't failure… but a sign your healing is working? In this follow-up to Episode 9, I reveal why relapse is actually normal, expected, and can be your greatest opportunity for deeper transformation when you know how to work with it.







In this episode, we explore:




Why relapse is actually a sign that your healing process is working (not failing)



The shame cycle that keeps you stuck after relapse and how to break it



How to reframe relapse as a pointer to the next layer you need to heal



Why fearing relapse makes it more likely to happen (and more intense when it does)



The exact process to turn relapse into deeper healing and breakthrough








Actionable Takeaways:




Expect relapse and even welcome it—this mindset alone makes it less likely and less intense



When relapse happens, ask "What's right with what's wrong with me?" to validate the need underneath



Use relapse as a roadmap: identify what emotion you're still afraid to feel, then allow it with safety








Have you experienced relapse? How did you handle it? Share in our community.







If this changed how you see relapse, share it with someone afraid of falling back into old patterns.







And remember: may you be happy and do good, and may you be happy doing good.
