Episode #29: Getting real with your host Vikram Deol
Manage episode 311253299 series 3098779
Want to know what eating food with maggots in it at 6th grade, your uncle pulling a gun on your boarding schools gate guard and being sent to school in India all have in common to a young boy?
It all has to be with feeling that you are not worthy of nice things and love and that you must fend for yourself. There is good and challenge in my story.
My story taught me to be tough and resilient and love everyone, it also taught me to be cold and selfish and not trust people. I never knew why I wouldn't trust people, but it was because I realized I didn't have trust in people because I didn't have trust in my parents that they had my best interest in mind.
I don't think my parents purposely tried to hurt us, but there are always unintended consequences for all of our actions.
Today I share what happens when you bury these deep down and hide them under the rug. I openly talk about a few experiences who shaped me and how it also broke me down and forced me to level up and rebuild.
Today, this is a solo episode about your host with the most and how how trauma can be your friend and enemy at the same time.
Thank you for allowing me to share my story with you and as always, please like, comment, and share this with others. We never know whose hurting in life. We are soo good at masking ourselves now literally and physically.
As always, you freaking Rock! And I love you!
