Is Pain Normal?...Or are you just used to it?

Is Pain Normal, or Are You Just Used to It? with Dr. Courtney Miller, Licensed Clinical PsychologistWhat if the pain you’ve learned to live with isn’t actually normal… it’s just familiar?In this episode of Daring Discussions, I’m joined by Dr. Courtney Miller, a licensed clinical psychologist, for an honest, eye-opening conversation about pain, trauma, and the quiet ways we normalize suffering just to survive.We talk about how emotional pain gets mislabeled as strength, why so many of us stay in patterns that hurt us, and how coping mechanisms can slowly turn into cages. We also unpack what healing really means for Black Christian Women.If you’ve ever said, “This is just how life is,”If you’ve learned how to function through pain instead of heal from it,If you’re wondering whether relief is even possible for you…This episode is an invitation to pause and ask a better question.Because just because you’ve survived it… doesn’t mean you were meant to carry it forever.Press play.
