Chapters
For 2 weeks, we looked at women. Week 1 was Veronica. She was held hostage by her narcissistic husband who activated 3 different love patterns within her. Her personality was drowning within the marriage and she had a 5C score of 0. In week 2, we looked at Tanya. Now, she had the courage to leave, but her problem was, is that she didn't have the courage to close the door and step out of that doorway and fully live the life that she knew that she wanted to live. Her faith was disguised as fear, and she was living a generational story where she thought that the ending of her marriage and divorce meant that she had failed and she was repeating the same generational cycle her mother and father had gone through. Both are powerful stories and both are very important. Both are necessary, but they're incomplete because we haven't flipped the mirror.
