S4 Ep 6 Best Friend Therapy: Guilt - Why do we feel bad? When is it misplaced? What can we do about it?

By Emma Reed Turrell

Guilt is a feeling that plagues so many of us that we felt compelled to dedicate an entire episode to it!

Emma explains the difference between authentic guilt and the misplaced guilt we can feel when we turn anger back in on ourselves, and Eizabeth shares 40 things that made her feel guilty in 2021 (and some that still make her feel guilty now!).

We talk about how men and women do guilt differently, how guilt can function as a form of self-preservation, why parental guilt stops us problem-solving effectively and what you should do if you still haven't made that phone call (eek).
