S1 EP10: The guilt of choosing yourself


Listen Later

Many of us were raised to be the reliable one. The helpful one. The one who says yes, holds everything together, and puts everyone else first. But what happens when your soul begins asking for something more?

In this episode, Giada looks at one of the most powerful and hidden forces that keeps people stuck between worlds: guilt. The guilt that arises when we begin to honour our own needs, boundaries and inner calling.

Where does this guilt come from? Cultural expectations, family dynamics, religion, and even the survival patterns of our nervous system can all teach us that caring for ourselves is selfish. Yet the truth may be the opposite.

Choosing yourself does not mean abandoning others. It means including yourself in the circle of care. Because when you nourish your own soul, you show up with more presence, patience and love for everyone around you.

This episode is a reflection on responsibility, rest, boundaries, and the courage it takes to honour your own life.

About the Host

Originally hailing from the vibrant city of Milan, I’ve spent the past two decades traversing the globe in a quest for spiritual and personal growth and combined with 25 years of international corporate work experience. From navigating the vast landscapes of Australia in a campervan to finding tranquility living in a Buddhist monastery in Nepal, my journey is nothing short of extraordinary. Along the way, I’ve delved deep into Buddhist teachings, yoga, and shamanism, becoming Shamanic Teacher,  Forest Therapy Guide, Esoteric Numerologist, Shamanic and Integral Yoga Teacher and Ikigai Coach. In 2013 I settled in Edinburgh, where  I founded the Art and Spirituality Centre, a social enterprise and the School of Shamanism, where I passionately help others on their own transformative journeys.
