456: Barriers to Breakthroughs: The Five Pillars

Today, I’m sharing a powerful conversation about something we all need but many of us were never taught: how to become a healthy adult. In this episode, I walk through the five pillars of emotional health from my new book The Adult Chair and how each one helps us break old patterns, heal childhood wounds, and feel more grounded in our lives. I also open up about my own story, from growing up around anger to learning how to set boundaries and reconnect with my true self. This is about personal growth, yes, but it’s also about freedom, better relationships, parenting, and how we show up in the world. In this episode, you’ll hear: Why disassociation and numbing are actually survival tools What real boundaries look like and why they matter How childhood wounds shape our adult behavior How I used food to cope and what I’ve learned Why every adult needs this guide for emotional health   Resources from this Episode: Pre-order your copy of The Adult Chair book Get 20% off at Aquatru.com with promo code: MCSHOW   MORE MICHELLE CHALFANT Website: https://www.michellechalfant.com Membership: The Academy of Awakening https://www.theacademyofawakening.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themichellechalfant Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheMichelleChalfant The Adult Chair® Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theadultchair YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/Michellechalfant
