This week on ShrinkChicks, Em and Jen dive headfirst into the murky waters of regret—why we feel it, how it shows up, and what it does (and doesn’t) mean about the choices we’ve made. From big life decisions to parenting fears and the spiral of overthinking in the shower, they explore why the fear of regret can be more paralyzing than regret itself, and how to move through it with compassion and clarity.
They unpack the difference between regret, guilt, and shame, reflect on why “right” doesn’t always mean “easy,” and share why it’s perfectly normal to question even the biggest, most meaningful decisions like becoming a parent. Regret, it turns out, is often about lost possibilities, not wrong turns.
Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action! PS: Fast forward to around 8:45 to skip the intro and get straight to today’s content.
