Podcast episode cover for Addiction Unlimited Episode 382: How to Make Peace With Your Past (Even If You Regret Everything), includes Downloadable Self-Forgiveness Toolkit with guided exercises to help people in recovery heal guilt and shame.

Have you ever asked yourself, “How do I forgive myself for what I did when I was drinking?”
If the shame feels too big, the guilt too heavy, and the past impossible to escape—this episode is your turning point.

In this powerful conversation, we’re diving deep into self-forgiveness—what it is, why it’s so hard, and how to actually begin the process of releasing regret and reclaiming your power in sobriety.

I’m also walking you through a powerful 3-minute reflection practice from my brand-new Self-Forgiveness Starter Kit—designed to help you stop punishing yourself and start moving forward.

Because your past doesn’t get to have the final word. You do.

✨ In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • Why shame feels necessary—and why that belief is hurting you
  • How rumination blocks your ability to move forward
  • The emotional + physical toll of carrying unresolved guilt
  • The truth about what forgiveness really means (and what it doesn’t)
  • A simple practice to reset your mindset and start healing today

This isn’t just mindset work—it’s a full-body reset for anyone stuck in guilt, self-punishment, or emotional paralysis after quitting drinking.

If you’re tired of carrying your past like a weight, and you’re ready to build something better… it all starts with one radical act:

👉 Forgive yourself.
