Are you truly aware of the hidden factors holding you back in life? In this episode, we delve into the profound impact of early experiences and unnoticed emotional wounds on our lives.

Christina holds a master’s degree in guidance and counseling (University of Durham). She is currently finishing her master of fine arts degree in painting and drawing (Academy of Art).
