About this episode
Why do some comments roll right off our backs while others cut deeply? In this episode of Live On Purpose Radio, Dr. Paul explores the powerful idea that we don’t always hear what is said—we hear it through the filters we’ve developed over a lifetime of experiences. When those filters are shaped by unresolved hurt, we may hear wounds instead of words. Building on the familiar phrase, “hurt people hurt people,” Dr. Paul explains how emotional wounds influence our perceptions, reactions, and relationships. More importantly, he offers a hopeful invitation to take responsibility for our own healing so we can experience greater peace, healthier relationships, and a clearer understanding of ourselves and others.
