One of the emotions I have always struggled with is the shame. I have made plenty of mistakes in my life and when they happened, I would always try to explain, excuse, and then use super human strength to rectify my wrongs. I could not bear the thought of people thinking poorly of me for being irresponsible and not getting things done. Being the black sheep of a highly functioning family, It is a struggle I have lived with forever.
In this episode, I discuss a mistake I recently made, the shame it brought me, and how I was able to help me accept and my human imperfection and give myself grace to move forward.
We don't have to lose a child to face the harsh consequences of the need to be perfect but sometimes it takes something like this to remind us that we are here to connect and to love, not to convince the world that we live a perfect life.
