Getting Over Mom Guilt - Is It Possible?

Have you ever heard of dad guilt? Me neither! It’s because dad guilt doesn't really exist. I don’t say fathers don't worry about hurting and ruining their children. They just don’t overthink or talk about it all the time. They’re more like, “Yeah, I feel bad… But they'll get over it. I got over it, too!” On the other hand, women often set an impossible standard to be a perfect mother. And trying to achieve that, we’re inevitably swaying from being afraid of ruining our children to feeling guilty over pursuing our own dreams and ideals. So, the question is, How to cope with mom guilt? If everything can be used as a tool or as a weapon, is guilt an exception? Can it ever be a good thing? Is it even possible to get over mom guilt? Let me assure you that YES, it’s possible! Tune in for this episode and find out what happens when you weaponize mom guilt instead of using it as a tool to help you learn and grow, how to fully lay down mom guilt, and why you’ll hurt your kids for sure.
