Episode 140: Dresses and Moms

In today's episode, we delved into a listener's email regarding wedding dress regret and the influence of their mother during the dress shopping process. The listener expressed feeling immense anxiety over their choice of wedding dress and regretting involving their mom too much in the decision-making. We explored the common phenomenon of second-guessing wedding choices and the tendency to overly critique past decisions once the moment has passed. I emphasize the importance of being kind to oneself and reframing the situation positively. It's crucial to develop a relationship with one's past and future selves that is supportive and understanding, allowing for growth and self-compassion.
