Episode Description from the Publisher

When you start to change — really change — not everyone is going to celebrate it. Some people will feel threatened by it. Some will try to pull you back. Some will act like your growth is a rejection of them. In today's episode Celeste addresses one of the most painful parts of identity work — the moment when becoming yourself starts to feel like it's costing you something. Or someone. And why that cost, as painful as it is, is not a reason to stop. If guilt has been showing up every time you try to grow into who you actually are, this one is going to help you keep going anyway. Today's shift: Identify one relationship where your growth has been met with resistance — and remind yourself that their discomfort is not your responsibility to fix.
