Inner Child Hurts-Artist & Co-author Dina Fortune discusses her self-love.

Artist and co-author of My Two Cents of Self-Love, soon to be released in July 2023, discusses her work on her inner child and how she developed loving herself. Steve and Dina discuss her inner child and permit her to allow the child to speak. The inner child is a concept in psychology that refers to the childlike aspects of a person’s personality, emotions, and behaviors still present in adulthood. It represents the vulnerable, curious, creative, spontaneous, and carefree parts of oneself that often get suppressed or overshadowed by adult responsibilities, pressures, and expectations. The inner child also carries unresolved childhood traumas, needs, and desires that can impact relationships, self-esteem, and mental health. Accessing and healing the inner child can lead to greater self-awareness, self-acceptance, emotional intelligence, and personal growth.
