I know that making mistakes is a part of life, but it can be hard to shake off the guilt and feeling like we're the only ones who have made them. But the truth is, everyone makes mistakes, and it's important to learn from them and move forward. In this episode, I'll be discussing the importance of self-compassion and forgiveness when it comes to dealing with our mistakes, and how it can help us in our personal growth.

We all make mistakes, it's inevitable. But the problem is, when we make them, we feel guilty and like we're the only ones who have made them. But the truth is, mistakes are a part of life, and everyone makes them! But sometimes we give them so much weight, that we lose sight of everything else. It doesn't matter if we did a thousand things right, as soon as we do one thing wrong, we let that moment take over everything and define us as people.

But it's important to make peace with our mistakes, and to remember that we are more than just that one mistake. We are more than that unfinished project, those relationships that didn't have a happy ending, the no's we've received, the fights we've had, and the tears we've cried. And we are definitely more than all the things we didn't dare to do out of fear. We are so much more than our mistakes!

All those times we made mistakes and fell down, they are part of our story. They are lessons we needed to learn in order to take the next steps in our journey. So stop judging yourself so harshly and think about how heavy it can be to always carry these frustrations and criticisms towards yourself. Today, choose to breathe and forgive, and feel how by doing so, it releases that heavy burden that only holds you back.

Choose to see your mistakes as an opportunity for change and growth. When we make a mistake, we have two options: to fall down under the weight of self-criticism and judgment, or to face the situation head-on, understand what went wrong, learn from it, and get back up. It's not the mistake that defines us, it's how we react and continue with our lives afterwards.

Remember that life is a continuous learning process, nobody comes into this world knowing everything or having all the answers. And that's okay! Mistakes are a part of the process, and they help us to grow and become better versions of ourselves.

So, I hope this episode has helped you in some way to embrace your mistakes, and to understand the power of self-compassion and forgiveness.
