We all know how bad regret can feel. But did you know you can turn it around? In this episode Shannon and Janine discuss how to glean the learnings from a situation and then let go of the regret. And Shannon demonstrates the process on Janine, helping her let go of regret around catching COVID.

Discussion topics include:

• Janine testing positive for COVID

• Janine's regret over letting her guard down by going to a restaurant

• Shannon's process for letting go of regret

• Taking Janine through the process to help her let go of regret over how she thinks she caught Omicron

• Why regret exists: To keep you from making the same mistake in the future

• Taking it that extra step: Ask yourself "What can I learn from this to make it easy to let go of the regret?"

• Recognizing the positive intention of the regret

• Looking for additional learning in the situation

• Janine's COVID silver linings

• By the end of the process, Janine let go of her regret! (Regret she didn't even realize she had.)

• Shannon's process for letting go of regret (we invite you to try it!):

• Identify the thing that you are feeling regret about

• Ask yourself what you can learn from it or what is important for you to take forward from the experience. You can ask, "What's the positive intention of the regret?"

• Keep checking in with yourself until the regret is gone ("What else do I need to know to allow me to let go of this regret?")

• Applying this to all sorts of regrets, including not sticking with your resolutions
