Growing up with emotionally immature parents often means growing up with some confusing, painful beliefs about yourself.

Shame is one of those feelings that can stick to you like glue - quiet, heavy, and hard to name.

Guilt is a natural emotion that plays a crucial role in our moral and emotional development. When experienced in a healthy way, guilt helps us recognise when we have made a mistake, encouraging us to make amends and grow as individuals. It strengthens relationships by promoting empathy, accountability, and ethical decision-making.
