Together, they explore the many faces of guilt, including silent and public guilt, and how it often becomes a tool of self-protection and justification. Tiffany shares real-life examples, like the time she felt guilty for not participating more in her daughter’s school musical, and the irrational guilt that comes with being successful in a world that pressures women to be everything to everyone.Tiffany and Brian discuss how guilt can cloud your judgment, make you question your choices, and push you away from your true priorities. They explain how guilt often stems from external pressures, like societal expectations or comparison to others, and how it keeps you stuck in a cycle of justification instead of making empowered decisions based on your values.You’ll walk away with a framework to:Identify when guilt is influencing your decisionsRecognize the difference between self-protection and true self-trustUnderstand how guilt can derail your priorities and goalsLearn how to shift your mindset from guilt-driven decisions to purpose-driven choicesWish you could talk it out with BK?
