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.

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.

S1E23 A Choleric Mom's Journey to Self-Forgiveness
Monday May 06, 2024
Monday May 06, 2024
In this insightful podcast episode, we plunge deep into the psyche of the choleric temperament. We unravel nuances of anger and the therapeutic strength of forgiveness, through the lens of a choleric. The guest, Catherine Johnson, a Catholic Mindset Coach and mother, engages in a candid conversation about her battles with rage, mom guilt, and her path to forgiveness.
The podcast emphasizes understanding the choleric person's tendencies like direct communication, boundary-setting, and the propensity to set aside resentment for personal growth. It shines a light on obstacles commonly faced by cholerics when attempting to forgive, such as a reluctance to vulnerability, impatience, obstinacy, fear of exploitation, and empathy deficit. It further provides constructive approaches for cholerics to steer towards forgiveness, such as emotional recognition, conflict root identification, empathy exercises, assertiveness, and ego subdual.
In a particularly stirring segment, the mother takes us through her struggle of dealing with guilt, shame, and the arduous road to self-forgiveness. Her powerful insights teach us about genuine apologies to the child and the cruciality of self-pardon. The discussion gracefully transitions into how humility plays a crucial role in admitting our transgressions and in seeking forgiveness, from ourselves and those we hurt.
Whether you identify with the choleric temperament or are intrigued by this personality type's perspective on anger and forgiveness, this podcast will undoubtedly offer you valuable learnings and reflections. With a blend of vulnerability, humility, emotional intelligence, and an appropriate understanding of boundaries, this compelling episode presents a universal lesson in forgiveness that everyone can learn from.
