Josh Connolly on How to Heal When Your Childhood Hurt You

In this episode, I sit down with the incredible Josh Connolly, an emotional resilience coach, speaker and author of the transformative book It’s Them, Not You. Josh opens up about his personal journey of healing from a childhood shaped by trauma and growing up with a toxic, alcoholic parent. He shares how these early experiences influenced his struggles with addiction and self-worth, and how he’s since transformed those challenges into a mission to help others.

Together, we explore the long-term impacts of dysfunctional family systems, the importance of breaking unhealthy patterns, and the power of self-compassion in the healing process. Josh also offers practical advice on navigating difficult relationships, reparenting yourself, and the importance of finding community.
