Episode 79: When You Stop Fearing Others' Disappointment, Everything Changes


Listen Later

Are you stuck in cycles of shame and people-pleasing—either defensively arguing or over-apologizing when you disappoint someone?

In this episode, Jenna shares a personal breakthrough sparked by a friend’s spiritual dream about the fear of punishment. Through a real-life story of running late, she unpacks how punishment fuels shame and self-focus, while natural consequences can teach and free us to connect authentically.

The turning point comes when she shifts from spiraling from fear of being punished (by their disappointment) to having the emotional space to see the other person’s perspective—transforming the moment into one of empathy, vulnerability, and connection.

If you’re ready to trade shame-based reactions for genuine connection and spiritual growth, this episode will give you practical tools and fresh hope.
