      During childhood, we are highly impressionable, absorbing messages and beliefs from our caregivers, peers, and environment. If we are exposed to criticism, neglect, or invalidation during this crucial period, it can deeply impact our self-worth and contribute to the development of shame.

    By far one of my favorite Chris interviews I’ve ever seen Bumstead interviews can sometimes stick mainly to the body building aspect of his life. And for me personally it’s the other stuff I enjoy hearing about. I know he knows how to be the best at body building. I love hearing more about what goes on in between those ears on his head. Y’all know that mindset battlefield and the heart battlefield where all those thinking and spiritual wars are happening. Chris Bumstead discussing emotional intelligence and childhood trauma and experiences is priceless and epic. Thanks 🙏 Lewis

    This guy just described what my child hood was like. Verbatim of what I would have said. Wow. I am also number two, good in school sports etc. Older sister was rebellious and had all my parents energy, what little they had. And I figured, I was fine. I can take care of my own self ... Now I'm 42, and facing my own disconnect from my emotions and any needs I had but I learned to ignore. Very revealing for me.

    I must say that's it's a multi million conversation.
    Very natural but very healing.
    Life is so simple but due to our hidden emotions and feeling we don't know even consciously but we ourselves have made our lives challenging.
    It is very important that before make any relationship with someone we should have a very friendly relationship with ourselves. And spirituality helps us to reveal our hidden potential and heal our hidden wounds too.
    Just incredible discussion.
    All thanks to Lewis and Chris Bumstead.🎉
