Quick Hits are 10-minute conversations designed to exercise your brain by letting you listen in on an unscripted conversation to hear other people‘s thoughts on a variety of subjects. In February of 2021 I and the members of my mastermind group thought other people might enjoy listening in on some of the lively conversations we were having. But we realized that no one was going spend 90-minutes listening to us going on about anything and sometimes nothing. Instead, we decided to pick one topic and have a short conversation to share. I took the reigns because facilitating those types of conversations sounded like fun. Over the course of a few months it grew from just members of our mastermind group to four (sometimes three if schedules go sideways) people from various parts of the world and from ”short” to exactly 10-minutes. Thus was born ”Quick Hits” hosted by me, Dr Robyn. I hope to get caught up with posting them here on PodBean at some point. As of this writing, I have over 100 ”episodes.” If you‘d like to see the videos of these conversations, they are available on my YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/DrRobynQuickHits If you have a topic you‘d like to hear discussed, I encouraged you to use the contact page of my website: https://drrobynodegaard.com/ to let me know.

We set standards for the kind of person we expect ourselves to be. When we feel that we haven’t done everything possible to meet those standards, we can find guilt settling in and making a home for itself deep in our chests.
But we have to ask ourselves: Who sets those standards? Where do they come from? And most importantly: Do they matter?
Are we just judging ourselves based on someone else’s expectations? Sometimes other people’s expectations are nonsense. (Dare I say most times?)
Joining the discussion are author, book coach and speaker Doreen McGettigan; Dr. Bob Choat, who works with executives on mental transformations, and Christopher Jerjian, who has worked in commercial real estate for 30 years and focuses on creating spaces for small businesses.
Some takeaway quotes:“At first I was trying to over excel…and everyone was saying, ‘No, it’s OK.’ And that was making me feel even guiltier because I felt like I was making everybody work harder.” (Doreen McGettigan)
“As humans, we need to feel like we’re in control all the time. We plan out lives and if things don’t work out, it makes us feel bad. ‘I thought I should have done this but something happened.’ (Dr. Bob Choat)
"For me, the biggest form of guilt is when someone asks for help and for different reasons you’re not able to give it. I’ll ask myself, ‘Could I have done something more?’ Sometimes the answer is, ‘Yes, you’re being selfish,’ and sometimes the answer is no.” (Christopher Jerjian)
What does it mean to you to "feel" guilty?
