Ep. 7 – Forgiveness Isn’t What You Think: Reclaiming Power, Not Making Peace
We’ve been sold a lie about forgiveness. That we need closure. That we have to reconcile. That to forgive means to soften, forget, or even reconnect. But what if forgiveness was never about them?
In this powerful episode, Dawn Elgin reclaims forgiveness as an energetic disentanglement—a moment where you choose your peace over your pain. Through raw storytelling, you’ll hear the truth about how she forgave without contact, without permission, and without losing her fire.
Plus, experience the “I Set Myself Free” Ritual to release the weight you were never meant to carry.
