In this bonus episode of the podcast, I talk with Courtney Brown, CEO of Cents of Style, about aspirational shame. Aspirational shame is the experience of feeling guilty for having aspirations outside of home and family life. We share our personal experiences with aspirational shame and share how we came to reject the paradigm of work and family life being in opposition. Courtney and I share lessons we’ve learned and discuss how we have both lessened or resolved aspirational shame and followed our passions in life. Part of this has involved building in support. We can’t do everything ourselves! But we can have a joyful life with both a family and a career or aspirations outside of the home.If you are interested in learning more about aspirational shame, join me in the Dr. Julie Hanks membership.
