512. Clean Pain and Dirty Pain

Jody Moore
About this episode

Have you ever noticed how some emotional pain seems to help you grow, while other types just keep you stuck in a cycle of suffering?

 

I've been fascinated by this distinction for years, and after mentioning it briefly at a recent speaking engagement, I realized I needed to dedicate an entire episode to exploring this powerful concept.

 

Join me this week to learn how to recognize the difference between clean pain and dirty pain in your own life and why making this distinction matters so much. You’ll hear personal examples of both clean and dirty pain, why we often choose dirty pain to avoid the necessary clean pain, and practical guidance on how to process emotions in a way that leads to growth rather than stagnation.
