Explicit content warning
09/14/23 • 37 min
Everything ends. Jobs. Relationships. Chapters of your life.
Even versions of YOU end. And new ones come online.
Sometimes change can feel amazing. (Let's burn away the old and make space for the new!)
And sometimes change is upsetting and destabilizing.
You might wonder if it means you're doing life wrong.
Society like to mess with our heads by holding up permanence as the ideal.
It's why 10-year job anniversaries and golden marriage anniversaries get celebrated. (Even if those jobs/marriages have been a total horror show for the people involved.)
It's easy to forget a fundamental truth: Nothing in life is supposed to be permanent.
Just knowing this can be a huge game changer.
It can free you to release relationships, jobs, places, chapters, and versions of yourself that are now complete so you can make room for what's next.
On this week's podcast episode, we dig into the "Myth of Permanence," how it messes with our heads, and how to counteract it and find freedom.

#51 – The Best Antidote for Shame (Self Restitution Process)
Do you ever say cringeworthy things out loud?
Make the wrong decision?
Hurt people and regret it later?
If so, this episode is for you!
We live in a society where it isn't easy to make mistakes. There's a lot of judgement and blame flying around — not all of it justified.
It can make it hard to be a human who's evolving in real time — whether as a parent, professional, or partner.
But there's an antidote to the shame culture.
In today's episode, I share the self-restitution process. It's my favorite tool for taking away shame, strengthening wounded relationships, and growing through hurtful situations.
Enjoy!
