Are you holding on to guilt, regret or shame for things you've done or said in the past, to yourself or to others? This is the episode for you. 

This was sparked by a social media poll I did that indicated how many of you struggle more with self-forgiveness than self-acceptance.

So I open up and share some of my experiences of overcoming guilt and regret from the past - from the end of my marriage, broken friendships, addiction-fuelled regrets and the way I treated my mum and my body…

Carrying emotional baggage from the past hinders your personal growth and connection to your true self.

And yet, our biggest growth comes from painful experiences. So trust the journey, learn from past mistakes and forgive yourself.

The journey of self-forgiveness will free you up to pursue your soul's purpose with less resistance and more ease.
