S8 Ep1: Navigating Guilt with Karisma Motiram


Listen Later

Today’s episode is with Karishma Motiram, the founder of The Thought Box. She’s a mental fitness specialist, a psychology graduate and certified positive intelligence coach with a diploma in life coaching. 

Karishma knows the mental and emotional aspects of parenthood need a centre stage all of their own. She believes slowing down doesn’t need to be a bad thing, she talks candidly about mental fitness and the reality that it’s not just a case of adding in ‘morning hacks’ and in this episode we tackled something close to my heart - guilt. 

The three things we covered were:

  1. Guilt is a compass, not a punishment
  2. You can control your guilt by defining enough / your best
  3. You may be stuck in recycled guilt
  4. It was an incredible conversation that I felt very grateful to be having, and Karishma left no crumbs. Everything from asking ‘are we punishing ourselves for what the world wants us to be?’ through the the realities of guilt recovery, it was all there in vivid detail!
