Addressing Guilt

A 90-minute workshop for cycle-breakers who struggle with guilt and family guilt-tripping when doing the work of living more authentically.

About This Workshop

In this workshop, Nick will share a powerful model for understanding how guilt covertly (and overtly) operates in individuals and families, where these patterns are rooted (hint: it rarely starts with you) and what you can do to prevent guilt from sabotaging your progress.

Once you see the patterns, you’ll see why guilt and guilt tripping has much less to do with what you as an individual are doing or not doing, and everything to do with family history, longstanding belief systems, and even unaddressed generational traumas of the past.

In this workshop, you will…

  • Identify the relationship between the cycle-breaker role and how guilt operates in your family: Bringing the patterns front and center into your awareness and seeing it’s impact today

  • Learn to powerfully reframe guilt: Understanding how guilt can, surprisingly, be a first sign that you’re making progress and living more authentically

  • Uncover how guilt can sabotage you: Even those who do not feel they are burdened with guilt on a daily basis may still be dealing with the unconscious pressure to atone for their life choices; Making certain choices look understandable, acceptable or successful to “make up” for the way they defy expectations. Whichever form guilt takes, it threatens to keep you stuck if it’s not addressed directly.

  • A set of practices to help you let go of the toxic guilt that is making it hard to break the cycle3 and live a life aligned with your values

By the end, the goal is to have you depart with some major insights about your path and how to continue you can progressively free yourself from the shame and guilt that causes so much suffering for those who desire to live authentically.

And along the way, you’ll feel deeply affirmed that you’re not alone in this process and that in all likelihood, you’ve already broken through more of these barriers than you realize.

There will be a Q&A space at the end for questions.
