How to Release Guilt in Parenthood


Listen Later

EP:19 What does guilt mean?

Guilt in a noun form is the fact of having committed a specified or implied offense or crime.

Guilty in a verb form is to make someone feel guilty, especially in order to induce them to do something.

We as parents rip ourselves apart with guilt and shame. This creates that narrative or pattern within your brain, it's not going to do any positive.

If you are feeling that guilt every single day, ask yourself:

Is that guilt serving me?

Is it allowing me to see all the beautiful parts of me and what I am doing?

Is it allowing me to show up as my best self for my children and for myself in parenthood?

And change the narrative within your brain because the guilt and shame is causing anxiety, it's causing depression, it's causing a lot of mental health because you're ripping yourself apart.

Dr. B has gone through so much guilt through her own parenthood and had to learn how to release that through understanding sensory and emotional regulation, doing this on herself and doing this WITH her kids.

Join Dr. b on this week's episode of THRIVE Like a Parent podcast to dive into the work of releasing guilt in parenthood.
