Summary

Do you endlessly think about the mistakes you've made?

Do you replay the scene and ruminate over what you could have or should have done differently?

Are you filled with regret, worried you'll make the same mistake again?

In this episode, I'm sharing a different perspective on regret which may lessen feelings of shame, the four types of regret (from behavioral scientist Daniel Pink), and how to move on from endless rumination.
