Trying to Sit with Myself without Escaping

Описание: In this episode, I’m talking about what it really means to sit with yourself without escaping — without distractions, without numbing, and without trying to rewrite the past to make it feel easier.

We explore how sitting with yourself isn’t about punishment or shame, but about acceptance. Accepting the choices you made with the information and emotional capacity you had at the time… and then choosing how much power those moments get to have over you moving forward.

I share a personal story that shaped the way I understand guilt, grief, and responsibility — and how easy it is to carry emotional weight far longer than we were ever meant to. We also talk about self-forgiveness, and how hindsight can sometimes give you the lessons you need. There’s room for honesty, compassion, and gentleness in the healing process, and none of it can be rushed.

This episode also dives into the ways we distract ourselves to avoid inner work — and what happens when we choose instead to face the parts of ourselves we’ve been avoiding. Often, those shadows aren’t scary at all. They’re just younger, hurt, trying-their-best versions of us who didn’t yet know how to choose differently.

If you’ve ever felt stuck replaying the past, weighed down by guilt or shame, or unsure how to move forward without bypassing your feelings, this conversation is for you.

✨ Questions to reflect on while listening:

What am I still holding against myself?

Where might I be avoiding instead of feeling?

What parts of me need more compassion?

What would it look like to let some of this go?

Thanks for being here, and for being willing to do this kind of work — even when it’s uncomfortable.
