4. Significantly and constantly (how guilt shows up for us and how we fight back)

Episode summary:

Martha and Liv discuss the many ways guilt creeps into their lives—and how identifying what success looks like helps them give guilt the flick. Learn how rationing energy and identifying what makes you joyful can make family / social / productivity guilt slightly more manageable. Then ask yourself: what do you owe anyone and at what point does that outweigh what you owe yourself?  

Here's what went down:

  • Liv and Martha share the things they feel guiltiest about 

  • Liv gives a chill run-down of how much she gaslights herself each day 

  • How mental boundaries can stop us driving ourselves crazy

  • Liv explains a specific thing let go of (and how it relieved massive business anxiety)

  • Liv’s Nonna teaches us the phrase ‘up the sh!t’

  • How the first business Martha owned made her never want to own another business

  • Liv’s biz guilt is rooted in working on her business—find out what it has to do with her gymnastics practice

  • Three questions we ask ourselves to let go of guilt

  • How Martha’s shit-hot business strategist has helped her manage guilt

  • Celebrating little wins—letting go of shoulds

  • The big question: what do you owe anyone and at what point does that outweigh what you owe yourself?
