Sense of Guilt, Low Self-Worth, and High Expectations | Not Psychologists Talks with Jason and Yurii

"Anytime I was achieving something, I do not remember somebody ever telling me congratulations or some kind of support. Maybe it was, but I cannot recall it."


In this episode, we discussed Yurii's story of dealing with feelings of guilt, diminishing self-worth, and the struggle to live up to self-imposed expectations, in particular:
👉 Struggling with guilt and learning self-compassion.
👉 How cultural backgrounds shape our emotional experiences.
👉 Challenges of dealing with unspoken expectations.
👉 Using humor as a coping mechanism.
👉 Importance of community in processing trauma.


Join Jason Baum, the therapist by legacy, and Yurii Lazaruk, the therapist by Ilker, in having deep conversations about things you think but don't talk about a lot!
