Making Peace with Painful Memories: Freeing Yourself from Resentment as you Recover Your Soul

Recover Your Soul: A Spiritual Path to a Happy and Healthy Life

Send one way text to Rev Rachel

In this episode of the Recover Your Soul Podcast, we explore one of the most important and tender parts of the Soul Recovery journey—making peace with painful memories. When we hold on to resentment, we keep ourselves tied to the very moments that wounded us, replaying them again and again in our minds and bodies. True freedom comes not from erasing the past or pretending it didn’t happen, but from meeting those memories with compassion, grace, and forgiveness—first for ourselves, and then, when we’re ready, for others.

As I continue to work on my own memoir, I’ve been revisiting some of the most difficult years of my life, and it has reminded me that every story, even the painful ones, can be seen through a new lens when we invite in spiritual awakening and Soul Recovery. This is not about minimizing the harm or excusing others—it’s about choosing to release the grip of resentment so we can live fully in the present, whole and authentic. Join me as we talk honestly about how to move from grievance to peace, and how the 9-Step Soul Recovery Process offers a path to let go of what was and step into the freedom of who you truly are.
