110. Reflecting on Regret: Exploring Daniel Pink’s ‘The Power of Regret

And when I saw that Brené Brown had praise of the book on the back cover, I was in, and thought you’d like to hear about it, too. She said in her quote that regret was one of the best and toughest teachers in her life…and that it deepened her connection to herself and to others. And that the idea of “no regrets” doesn’t mean living with courage – it means living without reflection.

Let’s explore this emotion together!

3 Takeaways:

1. We all have regrets – it’s what makes us human.

2. There are different ways of dealing with regret but perhaps the most powerful one is to see them as an opportunity to think about what the regret is about? What is the lesson in it?
