Shame is a trickster.

It can sneak up on us at the worst moments, kick us when we’re down, and make us feel inferior to others.

But here in the Messy & Magnificent community, we’ve got a trick up our sleeves that can rival that ol’ dog we call shame… 

It’s recognizing what you’ve already done well already. 

Recognizing your strengths can snuff out the self-judgment so you can let yourself off the hook and start to focus on getting resourced for what’s next. 

This week, Karlee reveals that shameful trickster behind the curtain, showing you how to extinguish the insecurities you feel now and instead, acknowledge the strength and determination that got you where you are today.

In this episode, you’ll discover why shame creeps up on all of us, and you’ll hear the familiar untruths it leaves in its wake. You’ll hear real-life examples of high-achievers who are battling the shame game and learn how to build up your gratitude as a feel-good defense mechanism to instantly shift your mindset. 

First, gratitude for how well you’ve done with what you’ve had. Then, it’s the right time to seek the knowledge and resources you need to move forward.

If you’re ready to release the weight of shame, guilt, and self-judgement, and feel genuine gratitude for the “you” that got you here, and THEN focus on what’s next, then this episode is for you!
