with author Nancy Colier
December 2025
The burden of guilt is a topic that raises its ugly head nearly every time this group gathers. As women we seem to feel guilty about nearly everything…. not being a good enough parent, employee, boss, spouse, daughter, sister, community volunteer, political activist, PTA member, citizen of the world! … we even feel guilty about feeling guilty! Hope you can find time to listen to this beautifully curated talk for us by Nancy Colier - on the widespread epidemic of guilt among women and strategies for letting it go.
