Mom Guilt | May 15 2025
We came together for a candid talk on mom guilt with Dr. Sunitha Chandy, PsyD, and Jackie Chavez, LMFT. Attendees heard real stories and expert guidance on why guilt shows up in parenting and how naming it can make room for self-compassion.
We cleared up the difference between guilt “I did something wrong” and shame “I am wrong”, and explored how focusing on influence rather than control can ease stress. Our speakers shared practical tools, embracing imperfection, setting kinder expectations, and showing compassion when fear looks like defensiveness, along with links and resources for further support. It was a welcoming space where questions were encouraged, and everyone left with concrete steps to move forward.
Here's a quick look at what you missed!
