we all feel guilt. whether you’re a people pleaser, a perfectionist, or just plain human, we all feel it. sometimes we feel REAL guilt (that we should feel) when we do something wrong or something we regret - but even more often, we feel guilty about things we have no business feeling guilty for ⤵️
