Episode 3: Why Do I Feel Guilty For Choosing Myself?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Have you ever made a decision that was right for you… but still felt guilty afterward?
In this episode, we’re talking about why choosing yourself can feel so uncomfortable, especially if you’ve spent years prioritizing everyone else’s needs before your own.
We’ll explore where that guilt comes from, why guilt isn’t always a sign that you’ve done something wrong, and how healing often asks us to disappoint the version of ourselves that believed love had to be earned through self-sacrifice.
If you’ve ever struggled to set boundaries, felt responsible for everyone else’s emotions, or questioned whether choosing yourself makes you selfish, this conversation is for you.
