Finding Strength in Life's Fractures: How Breaking Leads to Healing

The Mike Muldoon Podcast: Bite-Sized Coaching Sessions Empowering Transformation in Small Doses

Ever noticed how life seems to break us right when we least expect it? That's what happened to me this week—literally. After weeks of moving boxes, setting up our new shop, and pushing my body to its limits, I found myself flat on the floor with my back completely out. Physical agony has a way of forcing us to slow down and listen.
Broken bones fascinate me. When properly set, they actually heal stronger at the breaking point. The body reinforces what was once weak, creating greater resilience precisely where the fracture occurred. But this only works when we acknowledge the break, get proper treatment, and give ourselves time to heal. Walking on a broken leg isn't brave—it's a recipe for permanent damage.
The same principle applies to our emotional, mental, and spiritual fractures. When dreams shatter, relationships end, or careers derail, our instinct is to push through, paste on a smile, and pretend we're fine. But what if those breaking points are actually invitations? Moments that force us to reset, realign, and finally address what we've been avoiding?
