Respect the You Who Made the Call

Self-criticism loves to show up in hindsight — but the version of you who made the decision deserves grace, not judgment.

What You’ll Hear:

• Why it's so easy to critique yourself after the outcome is known
• How our culture of hot takes and punditry has normalized self-judgment
• A reminder that your past decisions were made with courage and care, not foolishness
• Why self-compassion is more powerful than hindsight perfectionism
• A subtle shift that helps you learn without shame

Reflective Prompt:

Where have you been harsh on yourself lately… simply because you know more now than you did then?
What would it look like to thank the version of you who had the courage to choose?

Final Word:

You were the one brave enough to take the snap. Even if the play didn’t go as planned, you showed up. And that matters.

And as always, I love you much!
