Patrice Washington's video: Pursuing Purpose After Trauma

I don’t believe any of us can truly walk in purpose until we deal with our childhood trauma. We fail to realize how much our past trials and experiences shape us into the men and women that we are today and we have to push past trauma in order to fully utilize our God given gifts. My earliest trauma dates back to age six, where I found myself scrubbing my skin in the bathtub hoping to find lighter skin underneath. I grew up feeling like I had to earn love and approval from my loved ones, and sought a lighter complexion that I believed was more accepted. This limiting belief led me to experience a lot of bullying regarding my appearance, and was so intense it took 22 years and countless therapy sessions to work toward accepting myself. It’s time for us to transform our pain from something intended to hold us back into a tool that will propel us into purpose. Trauma is only temporary, don’t let it distract you from your destiny.
