Resentment is the feeling of indignation/anger from the perception that you have been wronged by someone or a situation. Holding on to resentment causes physical and mental health issues. In this episode, we highlight the resentment seen in "Black Panther" and how we can move on or live with difficult experiences. Getting revenge and being apologized to doesn’t necessarily provide the closure that you will need. We give tips on how to find closure and truly leave the past in the past. We promise no spoilers if you haven’t seen Black Panther. But, why haven’t you seen it yet? Please subscribe to our Podcast and be sure to write us a review. Many thanks!
