"Never in a million years would I have guessed that it would heal my most wounded relationship with just one exercise"

I was very excited to enter this program because I knew it would make me a more powerful and impactful communicator, but never in a million years would I have guessed that it would heal my most wounded relationship with just one exercise. The "care"frontation that I learned on Day10 ended with my dad saying “Sabin, I think that was the best conversation I have ever had with you." I did my carefrontation with my Dad, who I felt like never truly listened to me or heard me growing up, which as I kid I took personally but now realize rationally that it was about him and not me, but it still affects me since I internalized narratives in childhood that I am trying to undo. An hour and 15 minutes flew by, we were so in the moment, so present with each other, the words just flowed. My dad and I realized just how similar we are and how much our passion for speaking and sharing is amazing but at the same time can come across as overbearing and limits other people’s ability to be fully themselves. I told my Dad I love how much better he has listened and how much progress he has made in the last year in his open-mindedness, and then I told him that I need his support emotionally and sometimes I feel like I cannot get it because I think he is afraid to go deep within himself and into his emotions. He later told me that this made him extremely uncomfortable but he faced this fear and feeling, responded super vulnerably and honestly, and it led to such an amazing, authentic, beautiful conversation where we felt more connected than ever. I felt like I was able to forgive so many of the things from our past just from the healing of this one conversation. 

It was one of the most amazing and healing conversations I have ever had with him and I just want to thank Lisa Nichols for such an incredible way of showing me how to reach my Dad who I could not reach.
