Telling Harsh Stories to Yourself About Yourself? How To Rewrite the Narrative. | Allison Sweet Grant

Telling Harsh Stories to Yourself About Yourself? How To Rewrite the Narrative. | Allison Sweet Grant

Nobody makes it out of childhood unscathed. Here's a guide to letting go of the past.

Allison Sweet Grant, graduate with dual master's degrees from the University of Michigan, is a psychiatric nurse practitioner, turned author. She has been published in The New York Times and The Atlantic. She is the author of two children's picture books, The Gift Inside the Box and Leif and the Fall, co-authored with her husband Adam Grant. I Am the Cage is her debut novel.



In this episode we talk about:

  • The impact of your childhood trauma on your adult relationships
  • The concept of the "junk drawer" (a metaphor for all the pain, self-doubt, and anxiety you might try to compartmentalize)
  • Writing as a tool for self-acceptance and self-compassion
  • How to re-write your own story and where to start
  • Practical meditation tools to quiet the mind
  • The role of cathartic visualization
  • Dealing with imposter syndrome
  • And more
