Episode description as stored
In this deeply raw and transformational episode of the WE Podcast, Joe Mittiga shares the truth about healing, surrender, emotional growth, and spiritual awakening through the lens of his own life journey. From surviving childhood sexual abuse and addiction to discovering what true surrender really means, Joe breaks down the difference between trying to “fix yourself” and learning how to reconnect with the deeper parts of who you truly are.
This episode explores the hidden emotional patterns that keep people stuck in pain, addiction, codependency, shame, and self sabotage while revealing how healing actually happens through awareness, support, courage, and personal responsibility. Joe dives into the difference between mental surrender, emotional surrender, and spiritual surrender, while also unpacking concepts like inner child healing, glass empty versus glass full thinking, emotional intelligence, faith, forgiveness, and what it means to live from your divinity instead of your fear.
Whether you are struggling with emotional pain, searching for purpose, rebuilding your life, or simply longing for a deeper connection to yourself and God, this conversation offers powerful insight, honesty, hope, and practical wisdom for anyone walking a path of personal transformation and awakening.
