In this episode, Dr Em dives into the seemingly never-ending guilt of being a parent, especially a mum, as well as the guilt associated with caring for ageing parents.</p> <p>Dr Em, you&rsquo;ve done it again.</p> <p>To watch this full episode on YouTube, click here - <a href="https://youtu.be/wLLJdF1edVE">https://youtu.be/wLLJdF1edVE</a></p> <p>🫖Other Imperfects episodes mentioned in this episode</p> <ul> <li>Dr Emily - What Are Your Values? - <a href="https://apple.co/4dckMpy">https://apple.co/4dckMpy</a></li> <li>Dr Emily - What Are Your Boundaries? - <a href="https://bit.ly/409jO91">https://bit.ly/409jO91</a></li> <li>Dr Emily - Truth v Harmony - <a href="https://apple.co/40pgYO7">https://apple.co/40pgYO7</a></li> <li>Dr Emily - Who Is Your Inner Critic - <a href="https://apple.co/3XaFdw9">https://apple.co/3XaFdw9</a></li> <li>Ben Shewry - Making It Right (And Delicious) - <a href="https://bit.ly/4jPHq9F">https://bit.ly/4jPHq9F</a></li> <li>Ben Shewry (Pt 1) - The Other Side of Excellence - <a href="https://apple.co/4hhc2RB">https://apple.co/4hhc2RB</a></li> <li>Ben Shewry (Pt 2) - How The Chef Was Made - <a href="https://apple.co/48hrQiQ">https://apple.co/48hrQiQ</a></li> </ul> <p>📖Things to read</p> <ul> <li>Unstuck by Dr Emily Musgrove - <a href="https://bit.ly/4bhmCp2">https://bit.ly/4bhmCp2</a></li> <li>The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins - <a href="https://bit.ly/3SUcvhv">https://bit.ly/3SUcvhv</a></li> <li>Good Inside by Dr Becky Kennedy - <a href="https://bit.ly/443BPXE">https://bit.ly/443BPXE</a></li> <li>Choice Points by Russ Harris and Colleagues - <a href="https://bit.ly/4jUZjnw">https://bit.ly/4jUZjnw</a></li> </ul> <p>🩷To host your own Vulnerabilitea House, purchase the Vulnerabilitea House Cards here -&nbsp;<a href="https://bit.ly/3Cx4tGP">https://bit.ly/3Cx4tGP</a></p> <p>🩵To purchase our journal (or your novel)&nbsp;<em>My Imperfect Life,</em>&nbsp;click here -&nbsp;<a href="https://bit.ly/3Cx4tGP">https://bit.ly/3Cx4tGP</a></p> <p>🩵To join our patreon community, <em>A Little More Imperfects,</em> follow this link - <a href="http://patreon.com/theimperfects">patreon.com/theimperfects</a></p> <p>🩷 AND you can subscribe to <em>A Little More Imperfects</em> through Apple Podcasts too, here <a href="http://apple.co/theimperfects">apple.co/theimperfects</a></p> <p>The Imperfects is not a licensed mental health service and is not a substitute for professional mental health advice, treatment or assessment.
