“Guilt can prevent us from setting the boundaries that would be in our best interests and in other people's best interests. We don't have to let ourselves be controlled by guilt, earned or unearned. We can break through the barrier of guilt that holds us back from self-care.”
Ever felt weighed down by guilt that isn't even yours to carry? In this episode of 'Adult Child', Andrea and her guests dig deep into the burden of toxic guilt, especially for those who grew up in dysfunctional families. They share raw, real-life stories about how guilt can stop us from setting healthy boundaries and taking care of ourselves.
