Do you struggle to say “I’m sorry” without feeling like you’re admitting defeat? Have you ever avoided apologizing—even when you knew you should—because it felt too vulnerable? In today’s coaching call, Gigi opens up about her challenges with emotional regulation, self-blame, and the fear of being truly seen. Together, we unpack the deep-rooted shame that makes vulnerability feel so uncomfortable and explore how to shift from self-judgment to self-compassion.

You might want to listen if:

  • You find it hard to be vulnerable with your loved ones, even when you want to be

  • You struggle to regulate your emotions and often react more strongly than you’d like
  • You were raised in a home where apologizing or expressing emotions wasn’t encouraged
  • You want to learn how to trust yourself and create emotional safety in your relationships
