1 day ago
I’m Dr. Carron Silva, Your Catholic Forgiveness Guide. I’ve spent 30 years seeking healing for sexual, physical, and emotional abuse, and healing from racial discrimination. What I’ve learned is that therapy could only take me so far. I believe that FORGIVENESS IS THE WAY TO INTERIOR FREEDOM, but WE CANNOT DO IT ALONE. We need God, and in particular, Jesus, the Divine Physician, with the love of the Holy Spirit, to help us through a process of forgiveness and someone to hold the space while we do the work of healing. On this podcast, I talk about all the things that help you develop the lifelong skill of forgiveness and empower you to forgive yourself, others, and God. I help you to discover the grace and power within yourself to be able to move through your past painful experiences and see yourself and your perpetrators in new transformative ways. Why wait? Freedom starts now. Here’s what you can do: Connect: Sign up for a free discovery call at www.drcarron.com to see if we’re a good fit for a 1:1 coaching relationship with me as YOUR FORGIVENESS Guide. I will hold space for you as you work through your pain and rebuild your life. Study: Want to explore forgiveness on your own time before digging deep?

S2E44: Beyond Labels: Addiction, Identity and Forgiveness
Friends,  What happens when the label that once helped you heal begins to hold you back? In this follow-up to S2E43: Alcohol, the Brain and the Holidays, I continues my conversation with Christie Walker, the Catholic Sobriety Coach, who has been sober for nearly 29 years. What began as a practical talk about staying alcohol-free during the holidays evolved into a deeper reflection on identity, faith, and forgiveness. We explore the powerful question: “Do you still identify as a recovering alcoholic after nearly three decades of sobriety?” The answer opens the door to a heartfelt discussion about how recovery — like trauma healing — transforms not just our habits, but our sense of self. Together, we examine how forgiveness, grace, and spiritual growth help us release old labels and embrace who we’ve become. In This Episode The Catholic Sobriety Coach’s honest perspective on long-term recovery and identity How labels like addict or survivor can help at first — but limit us later Why forgiveness allows us to release shame and embrace a new self-concept The role of faith and grace in transforming identity Parallels between addiction recovery and trauma healing Christie Walker's Links:  Website: http://thecatholicsobrietycoach.com/ IG: @thecatholicsobrietycoach Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-catholic-sobriety-podcast/id1658622848 5 Day FREE Sobriety Kickstart: https://the-catholic-sobriety-coach.myflodesk.com/5-day-sobriety-kick-start Connect with Dr. Carron Link to my weekly newsletter.  Need someone to accompany you on your journey to freedom in a shame-free, nonjudgmental space?

Friends, In this episode, I ask listeners to take a moment to pause and reflect on the impact of political violence and how it shapes collective trauma.

S2E35: Preemptive Apologies: Barriers to Trust and Forgiveness
Friends,  Have you ever noticed someone apologizing before doing something wrong, or right before criticizing someone else? This is called a preemptive apology. While it may seem polite or humble, it’s actually a subtle barrier to trust and a roadblock to true forgiveness. Preemptive apologies create distance, erode integrity, and shift blame. By recognizing and avoiding them, we can build stronger relationships rooted in honesty, accountability, and real forgiveness.  Listen now to uncover how to move beyond preemptive apologies and embrace a path of genuine healing and reconciliation.

S2E30: Acceptance, Frogiveness and Boundaries: A Healing Path for Estranged Adult Children
Friends, In this episode, I offer insight and guidance for adult children navigating no contact or limited contact with parents. You'll hear reflections from my own story and insights on how to hold firm yet merciful boundaries, challenge inherited beliefs, and gently open the door to healing—even if reconciliation feels out of reach.  In this episode, I explore: What to do when estrangement feels like the only safe option How to examine and challenge inherited family narratives and judgments The importance of self-forgiveness in healing fractured relationships Setting boundaries that are clear, kind, and protective of your well-being How to "zoom out" and see the generational context of family dynamics What to do when you’re labeled the black sheep for protecting your peace This episode is not about blaming or shaming—it’s about understanding, empowering, and creating a healing path grounded in truth, mercy, and emotional maturity.

S2E29 Estranged: A Parent's Guide to Forgiveness and Healing Family Rifts
Friends, In this episode, I dive deep into the painful phenomenon of family estrangement, where adult children enforce no-contact orders with their parents, leaving many elderly individuals isolated from their families and grandchildren. I explore the emotional turmoil experienced by these grandparents and discuss the importance of forgiveness in healing long-standing family wounds. I share practical tips for sidelined grandparents on how to navigate the chasm created by generational differences and past conflicts and offer a series of steps to foster healing, including taking an inventory of past injuries, respecting boundaries, and seeking professional help when needed.

Forgiveness Is For YOU - Overcome Trauma Through Forgiveness
I’m Dr. Carron Silva, Your Catholic Forgiveness Guide. I’ve spent 30 years seeking healing for sexual, physical, and emotional abuse, and healing from racial discrimination. What I’ve learned is that therapy could only take me so far. I believe that FORGIVENESS IS THE WAY TO INTERIOR FREEDOM, but WE CANNOT DO IT ALONE. We need God, and in particular, Jesus, the Divine Physician, with the love of the Holy Spirit, to help us through a process of forgiveness and someone to hold the space while we do the work of healing. On this podcast, I talk about all the things that help you develop the lifelong skill of forgiveness and empower you to forgive yourself, others, and God. I help you to discover the grace and power within yourself to be able to move through your past painful experiences and see yourself and your perpetrators in new transformative ways. Why wait?
