Everyone Wants To Be The Hero, Until The Mirror Shows Up

Send us a text

Ever notice how easy it is to replay what they did to you—and how hard it is to face what you did to them? We go straight at that tension with a candid blend of faith, psychology, and lived experience, inviting you to trade self-justification for honest change. The heart of the conversation is simple and demanding: empathy grows when we remember our own capacity to fail, and healing accelerates when we own our impact, not just our intentions.

We unpack self-serving bias and the subtle ways we rewrite our stories to look better in the mirror. From Romans 12:3 to James 2:13 and Psalm 139, we anchor humility and repentance in Scripture without sliding into self-hate. You’ll hear how accountability becomes the bridge between conviction and transformation, and why correction isn’t rejection—behaviorally, it rewires shame; spiritually, it aligns with faithful wounds that heal. We also spotlight pride’s many disguises—defensiveness, needing to be right, hiding behind that’s just how I am—and show how these patterns block intimacy with God and the people who love us.

Coach Tara shares vulnerable lessons from surviving trauma and reclaiming identity, emphasizing that while much pain wasn’t our fault, healing is still our responsibility. Some apologies never arrive. Freedom comes when we stop waiting for permission to heal, lay down pride, consider our ways, and offer the apology that unlocks peace. We close with practical questions to examine your part, extend grace to others and yourself, and walk forward with courage and authenticity.
