Finding Yourself in Motherhood

The Shame/Blame Trap: Five 'F' Questions to Break Free

Andrea Gunnell Season 1 Episode 22

In this powerful episode, we explore how to escape the destructive cycle of blaming others or shaming ourselves for the results in our lives. Using the life coaching model (C-T-F-A-R), we examine how our thoughts and feelings about circumstances lead to actions that create our results—whether in parenting, finances, or personal goals.

Through vulnerable personal stories about parenting mishaps and practical examples from everyday life, you'll discover five powerful "F" questions that can transform how you approach challenging situations:

  1. FUTURE - What can I learn from this experience?
  2. FEELINGS - What emotions are guiding my actions?
  3. FEEDBACK - What would I tell a friend in this situation?
  4. FAMILY & FRIENDS - What support do I need from others?
  5. FACTS - What's actually true versus my interpretation?

Join us to learn how taking ownership of your results—without blame or shame—creates the foundation for meaningful change in every area of your life.
