🎙️ We Make the Best Choices Available to Us at the Time
🕒 Episode Length: 35 minutes and 32 seconds

Have you ever replayed a moment from your past and thought, “I should’ve known better”? Or carried shame for a decision that no longer reflects who you are? You’re not alone—and in this episode of Capes & Conversations, we talk about the difference between shame and growth, and how healing often starts with grace.

In this episode, we explore:
✨ Why internalized shame keeps us stuck in the past
✨ The difference between reflection and rumination
✨ How your past decisions were the best you could do with what you had
✨ What accountability really means (and what it doesn’t)
✨ Why “you can’t beat yourself into someone you love”
✨ Lessons from Michael Jordan, Tom Brady, Maya Angelou, and Roger Bannister

💡 Key Takeaway:
You did the best you could with the tools, insight, and circumstances you had at the time. Growth doesn’t come from shame—it comes from grace, reflection, and redirecting with love.

🚀 Parent Reflection Questions:
🤔 When you reflect on past decisions, do you extend yourself compassion—or criticism?
🤔 How do you model self-forgiveness for your child?
🤔 Are you confusing accountability with self-blame?
🤔 What story from your past are you ready to reframe with grace?
