The Celebrate Anyway Podcast with Johnene is based on her book Celebrate Anyway: A Strategy for Rerouting the Mind from Self-Destructive Behaviors. Every week Johnene calls out the mindsets that keep you stuck, names the struggles that feel too heavy to say out loud, and shares strategies to help you finally step out of self-destructive cycles.
Everything goes wrong and somehow you end up as the reason. You apologize for things that were not your fault. You carry weight that was never yours. If that resonates, this episode is for you.
This week, we are talking about self-blame.
Self-blame sounds like accountability but it is actually punishment. Johnene draws the line between owning what is yours and holding what never was, and gives you the tools to finally tell the difference.
