How to Bounce Back: Mistakes, Shame, and Second Chances

We all screw up, but how you respond to a mistake says way more about you than the mistake itself. In this episode, we have a raw, honest conversation about emotional regulation, accountability, and how to bounce back after you’ve messed up. Whether it’s a bad tone with your kids or a history of bigger mistakes like addiction or abuse, this episode explores how to repair, rebuild, and move forward without drowning in shame. You’ll hear the differences in how Matt and Paige process regret, how to know if it’s a pattern or a one-off, and why learning the lesson sometimes takes time - and that’s okay. A must-listen for anyone stuck in self-blame or trying to make sense of what change really looks like.
