Description: Is guilt really a useful emotion—or is it secretly holding you back from genuine connection and freedom? So many of us wrestle with emotions like guilt, anger, or fear, believing they’re necessary motivators or signs of responsibility. But what if these so-called “useful” emotions are actually blocking your creativity, joy, and authentic action? This episode challenges long-held beliefs about stress and negative emotions and opens the door to a radically different way of engaging with yourself and others. Learn why guilt might not be the helpful reminder you think it is—and what can guide your actions instead. Discover how releasing attachment to negative emotions can actually boost your motivation, creativity, and clarity. Hear a live, vulnerable inquiry session that reveals how old emotional patterns lose their grip when seen with compassion and insight.   Tune in now to explore how questioning your stressful thoughts can transform guilt, fear, and old pain into empowerment and peace.
