Ever wonder why you feel crushed with shame after yelling at your teen—even when you know better?
If you’re a mom trying to communicate more calmly but keep getting stuck in guilt, self-criticism, or emotional spirals, this episode breaks down why shame feels so powerful, why it pretends to be useful, and how it actually keeps you from changing the behaviors you want to improve.
- You’ll finally understand the real difference between guilt and shame—and why that distinction matters for your emotional health.
- You’ll learn how shame disguises itself as “helpfulness” while actually making your parenting challenges harder.
- You’ll discover a simple, memorable “Skip It” technique that helps you notice shame, interrupt it, and move into compassion instead.
