79: Debilitating Guilt + the ‘You Break It, You Fix It’ Mentality w/ Wendy Hair
When her son was young, Wendy grappled with the crushing feeling that she somehow caused her son’s disabilities and delays. The weight of that guilt and shame was unbearable, and it wasn’t until she saw herself in another mom struggling in similar ways that she discovered self-compassion. This aha moment changed her perspective for the better.
Ammon was five years old then, and in the ten years that’s past since that point, she’s developed a much healthier view of her relationship with Ammon and her relationship with guilt.
In this episode she shares what that was like for her, and ways that she has been able to rise above the guilt and shame, while also using the guilt she feels to make necessary adjustments to her life.
