Now You Feel My Pain: Jealousy, Hurt People & Breaking the Cycle

Emilie Iris

Ever caught yourself wanting others to feel your pain? Or wanting to cause others the pain that you're feeling? 

In this very raw and vulnerable personal story, Emilie shares how she once found herself resenting others for having what she deeply longed for. She reflects on the phrase “hurt people hurt people,” and on the hopeful truth that “healed people heal people” as well.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

  • How pain and jealousy show up in everyday life
  • Why we often want others to feel the pain that we’re feeling (and try to make that happen in the most sad and cruel ways)
  • The mechanism of “hurt people hurt people” on both an individual and collective scale.
  • Emilie’s honest story of misgivings, shame, and the compassion that followed.
  • Why true healing begins with daring to sit with and feel our pain.

This is a tender and powerful episode that shows how honesty, love, and self-compassion can help us break free from the cycles of pain.

👉 Tune in, breathe, feel along — and explore how you too can stop passing the pain forward.
