Secrets Can Make You Sick: Unlock Your Lockbox with Rachel Graham on The Divorce & Beyond Podcast with Susan Guthrie, Esq. #171

In this episode Susan Guthrie chats with Rachel Graham, whose new TEDx is focused on helpingyou to unlock your lockbox of secrets so that you can live a better life! Not all secrets are bad, but so often they can make us sick - literally!  When we are hiding things from those around us or even from ourselves, we can manifest that stress as anxiety, illness, depression and more which can lead to mental health issues, addiction and broken relationships.  The devestating effect of what we keep locked away, often brings more misery to our lives, and Rachel Graham knows this all too well as the Founder of Healing Springs Ranch, an in-patient addiction and recovery center.  Her experiences with patients as well as the cost of secrets in her own life, led her to create her popular TEDx talk focused on helping you to unlock your lockbox of secrets.   Some highlights from the episode: Why secrets often result in physical illness and mental health issues; The intersection of shame and secrets with divorce; How there can be many kinds of infidelity in relationships and how they all stem from secrets; Rachel's own secret that she reveals in her TEDx; How you can release those secrets from your own lockbox; and MUCH MORE! The average person has 13 secrets, 5 of which they have never told to anyone so if you are ready to start letting some of your secret's go, this is the episode for you!
