In this episode, Lori Gouhin explores the sneaky nature of regret and why it isn’t a dead end, it’s your internal GPS saying recalculating. Instead of dragging regret around like a heavy suitcase, Lori reframes it as feedback that helps you grow, redirect, and move forward with clarity.
Through powerful analogies, personal stories, and practical exercises, Lori shows how to unpack regret, reframe it, and use it as fuel for the next step in your journey.
