We talk a lot about the regrets people have when they're dying, but what about the regrets we carry every single day?
In this episode, Hilary Silver, former therapist and master coach of 25 years, shares the four most common regrets she hears in her work with high-functioning women. These are micro-regrets that quietly erode your confidence, peace, and sense of self.
