Ep 20 - Regret - A Function of Empathy

Published: Nov. 14, 2018, 4:11 a.m.

I use to think "Regret" was a dirty word. A word when spoken meant you were holding onto the past and you couldn't move on. In listening to an interview with Brene Brown on Oprah's Super Soul Sunday, my relationship to the word "Regret" transformed. If we value a growth mindset, we have to be willing to let go of beliefs that no longer served us. We have to be willing to unlearn what we have learnt. With Brene Brown's definition of Regret, I unlearnt my relationship to Regret. Regret can now be seen as a teacher. It shows us when we have acted being guided by Fear.
