138. What Your Regrets Are Trying to Tell You (and How to Use Them for Growth)

What are your regrets trying to tell you?In this episode, we explore a powerful reframe: regret isn’t something to avoid—it’s guidance. Inspired by the work of Daniel H. Pink, we break down the four core types of regret—connection, moral, boldness, and foundation—and how each one points to what matters most in your life.Through personal stories and real-life examples, you’ll begin to see your regrets in a new light—not as mistakes to dwell on, but as insight into your values, your needs, and the direction your life is asking you to move.If you’ve ever thought “I wish I had…,” this episode will help you understand why—and what to do next.In this episode:The 4 types of regret and what they revealWhy regret is powerful feedback, not a problemHow regret connects to core human needsSimple prompts to help you move forward with clarityA guided contemplation is available for members who want to explore this more deeply.Podcast: Armchair Expert with Daniel Pink Book: The Power of Regret by Daniel PinkQuestions or Comments?
