"Guilt helps us act in a way that aligns with our values'
In today's episode we cover the dreaded 'mum guilt' - a term that is so often thrown around in motherhood.
Sam Dhu is a womens empowerment coach, speaker and qualified psychotherapist who works with many women who are mothers facing the juggle (and struggle) of life with kids, relationships and career/business goals. I loved chatting to her about what exactly is guilt, why shame is often mistaken for guilt and how do we go about relieving ourselves of the burden of 'mum guilt' & feelings of shame.
What we cover:
What even is guilt as an emotion? And why it can serve a good purpose.
Helpful vs Unhelpful guilt.
Why guilt is actually often confused with shame and the difference between the two.
Why do women seem to experience guilt & shame so much more than men?
How shame results from unrealistic expectations.
HOW to stop mum-guilt turning into shame.
