Episode notes

Researcher Brené Brown found that the most compassionate people all had one thing in common: strong and consistent boundaries. This surprised her, as she had originally hypothesized that it would be something like a spiritual practice or good parenting.

Glennon, Abby, and Amanda help us shed guilt through a freeing reframe inspired by a conversation with Dr. Becky Kennedy.

Listen to learn: How to know what is true guilt and what is just the uncomfortable ickiness of defying expectations; how to hold boundaries in order to live shamelessly within our own values; and how to maintain empathy by staying with our own emotions instead of internalizing the emotions of others.

Also, we need your help inventing a word for the “not guilt” feeling!
