The Fortitude to Forgive

The Fortitude to Forgive

I wanted to reset this powerful video for Father’s Day. In chapter 17 of #CryLikeAMan “The Fortitude to Forgive”—I share how I refused to allow my emotions associated with growing up “fatherless” to stop me from forgiving father. This video always moves me to tears because it takes fortitude to forgive—and it’s love, not resentment—that heals the father wound.

This Father’s Day—help the men in your life find the path to healing their father-wound! Buy ‪#CryLikeAMan‬ today—http://crylikeaman.com/AMAZON
