Podcasts about Regret

It's the last episode of 2025 and we are reflecting on the year – the highs and lows, the lessons learned, and if we have any regrets. Then we discuss regrets in general, being consumed by "micro regrets" and three steps for managing it, our feelings on moving to LA and the potential of moving back to NYC, and our audience's biggest regrets of the year (with focus on staying in a relationship or job for too long). We are also sharing our listeners' biggest accomplishments of the year, recapping the holiday show and our favorite "secret segment," and discussing the age we're scared of. Enjoy!

While regret anchors you to past failures, reflection acts as a catalyst for future sales growth. This article and Sales Gravy Money Monday Podcast episode explores how to break the "if-only" loop and provides a step-by-step year-end debrief to help you extract lessons from your wins and losses, ensuring you start the new year with clarity and a proven system for success.   Explore: How to get out of your regret loop The power of reflection How reflection creates awareness A system for achieving your sales goals 7 Steps to year-end sales reflection Ways to Look Back at Your Sales Year For me, the last two weeks of the year have always been the chance to pause, take a break from the grind of selling, and really think about what happened over the past year—the good, the bad, and the ugly. If you are anything like me and do the same, there are two ways to look back on your last twelve months. You can do so with regret or reflection. These two opposing lenses are vastly different in the way they affect your view of where you've been and where you are going. The Trouble With Regret Let's start by unpacking regret. Some of you are already feeling regret about goals you missed, deals you lost, opportunities that slipped through your fingers, or the people in your life you may have let down. Regret is that feeling you get when you look back on something you did (or didn't do) and wish you could change it. In many ways, regret is similar to worry, except it's focused on the past instead of the future. Worry is about what might happen; regret is about what already happened. That's a big distinction. Although you can turn worry into action and change the future, you cannot rewrite the past. No amount of regret changes history. All it does is create a feedback loop in your mind where you keep reliving your mistakes, misses, and failures over and over again. Why Sales Professionals Get Stuck in a Regret Loop I've observed so many people get stuck in this endless loop of regret. They keep lamenting, "If only I had . . ." "made that call.” “handled that prospect differently.” “taken that chance.” “been there or done that.” Those “if onlys” can paralyze you. They sap your energy, crush your confidence, and keep you from moving forward. On one hand, regret can push you to change—you don't want to feel that kind of pain again, so you work hard to avoid repeating the same mistakes. On the other hand, regret can become a debilitating emotion that drags you into an exhausting and useless mental loop of “would've, could've, should've.” But no matter how many times you complete that loop, it doesn't change the outcome. It becomes an emotional anchor that weighs you down as you start the new year. The Power of Reflection Reflection, on the other hand, is entirely different—and far more productive. When you reflect, you detach from your emotions with objectivity to look at your entire body of work from the past year. You're asking the questions, “What went well? What didn't go so well? What did I learn?” You consider the wins that made you proud and the moments you'd rather forget. You figure out why you won so you can repeat those winning behaviors. You extract value from the lessons of failure. Reflection isn't about punishing yourself for what went wrong. It's about gaining clarity on why it went wrong—and what you can do about it next time. How Reflection Creates Awareness Reflection also helps you find gratitude in unexpected places. Maybe there's a hidden lesson in overcoming an obstacle, or perhaps you gained a new perspective because a challenging person came into your life. It's important to realize that each decision you made over the past year shaped your present circumstances. But you are not defined by these circumstances, only by how you respond to them. Reflection creates awareness. Where there is awareness, there is the potential for change. Awareness is like the sun; anything it touches has a tendency to transform. The bottom line is that reflection is about learning, growing, and transforming. Regret is stagnation. Why Reflection Matters at Year-End The reason I'm talking about the impact of reflection as we close out this year is because, for most of us, the slate really does feel clean come January 1st. In the sales world, we get a brand-new quota and brand-new targets. There's an air of possibility as we think: “This year is going to be different. “This year, I'm going to crush my numbers.” “Hit my income targets.” “Make it to President's club.” “Get a promotion.” “Finally, close that dream account I've been chasing.” But if you don't take a moment to reflect on what worked and what didn't, you're likely to find yourself repeating the same missteps. Reflection is like an internal debrief—a chance to say, “Here's what happened, here's why, and here's how I'm going to fix it.” Why Clarity Arises From Reflection Let me give you a personal example. A the beginning of last year, I set a goal for my sales training company, Sales Gravy. This was a big, bold, visionary goal that would transform our organization and ultimately double our sales. I proudly and confidently told my team that it was going to happen. And then, in an embarrassing crash and burn, I failed miserably. Certainly, I could have stewed in regret, beating myself up and allowing my self-talk to run wild about how I fell short. But that would have been a waste of time and energy. Instead, I chose reflection. I asked myself, “What happened and why didn't I achieve this goal?” As I mulled over those questions, the answers came more clearly than I expected. One of the biggest insights I gained was that I'd set this big goal, but didn't establish a system or plan to make it happen. You see, a goal without a system is basically just a wish—as they say, “hope is not a strategy.” Build a System that Supports Your Goals If, for example, you set a goal to prospect a hundred potential customers per week, but you haven't built a disciplined daily routine, built targeted lists, set aside specific times for calls, and created accountability checkpoints, it's not going to stick. Life will get in the way. Sooner or later, your big, bold goal gets overshadowed by a million other tasks. Without a system for achieving the goal, you quickly succumb to discipline fatigue. This is exactly why reflection can be your best friend at year's end. It allows you to own your failures without letting them define you, and it helps you leverage your successes by pinpointing what you did right. Regret says: “You messed up. You'll never fix this. It's too late.” Reflection says: “You messed up. Now let's find out why, learn from it, and do better next time.” How to Conduct a Year-End Sales Reflection To turn past performance into future growth, follow this 7-step systematic reflection process: Seek Silence: Carve out 30 minutes in a quiet environment without digital distractions to ensure deep focus. Audit the Timeline: Mentally journey through the year, month-by-month, starting from January, to recall specific goals and market conditions. Celebrate Wins: Identify specific deals and relationships that succeeded. Recognize the personal milestones that boosted your confidence. Isolate Winning Behaviors: Determine the exact habits and mindsets that led to your successes so you can turn them into repeatable systems. Analyze Failures Objectively: Pinpoint the goals that stayed out of reach. Ask "Why?" to uncover the root cause of the miss without self-judgment. Build Systems, Not Just Goals: Replace "hope-based" strategies with disciplined routines, targeted lists, and accountability checkpoints. Practice Gratitude: Identify the "silver linings" and lessons learned from challenges to maintain an optimistic outlook for the new sales season. Here's the big takeaway: Regret is the enemy of progress; Reflection is the catalyst for growth.

Most of our pain doesn't come from what's happening — it comes from where our mind goes. Regret pulls us backward. Fear pushes us forward. And somewhere in between, we miss the only place life is actually happening, right now. Living in the now isn't about ignoring responsibility or pretending the past didn't happen. It's about releasing the constant mental tug-of-war between what was and what might be. Recovery teaches us that sobriety is lived one moment at a time, not all at once. In today's Daily Trudge, we talk about: Why the mind naturally drifts to the past and future How regret and fear steal peace The difference between awareness and avoidance Why living in the now supports emotional sobriety How God meets us in the present moment Letting go of mental replay and projection Practicing presence in everyday life You can't fix yesterday. You can't control tomorrow. But you can stay sober, grounded, and honest right now. And right now is enough.

Welcome back to the Regretful Parents series. This week, Erika and Kristen read and react to a post from the Regretful Parents subreddit titled “Feel Like I've Ruined My Life.” Spoiler alert: he kind of has. A 29-year-old man agrees to an ultimatum — have a baby before 30 or never — and now finds himself exhausted, resentful, intimacy-deprived, and being pressured for more kids he absolutely does not want. The hosts break down the red flags, the insanity of reproductive ultimatums, and why choosing hypothetical future children over your actual partner is… deeply unwell behavior. Along the way, they discover one of the smartest parenting arrangements they've ever seen, question why people keep doing this to themselves, and remind everyone (once again) that ultimatums are not love.Topics include:Reproductive ultimatums

In this episode, I sit down with Jason Lavender—a real estate investor and former painting contractor—who gets real about his rocky relationship with money and how Profit First finally changed his life. Jason shares the painful truth about how he ran his business by looking at his bank balance, faced constant stress despite making money, and ignored the warning signs until everything boiled over.What makes this episode so powerful is Jason's honesty. He didn't get it right the first—or even the second—time he tried Profit First. But when he finally committed, delegated implementation, and surrendered access to his own money, everything shifted. We talk about how he transitioned from a chaotic hustle into a clear, structured, and profitable business, and how you can too.Episode Highlights[0:00] – Jason's early years as a painting contractor and the shift to real estate investing[2:59] – The stress and confusion of “bank balance accounting”[4:35] – How Profit First didn't stick the first two times—and what made it click the third time[5:33] – The critical moment: giving financial control to his assistant (his daughter!)[8:44] – Going all in on real estate—and leaving the painting business behind[10:00] – “Burning the ships” and betting everything on building his investment business[11:28] – Regret and hindsight: How Profit First could've helped during his business exit[14:07] – The turning point question: “Where did all the money go?”[17:25] – Building a real business, not just a hustle—and the peace that came with it[21:06] – What a healthy business looks like for Jason today: structure, clarity, protection[24:07] – The role of coaching and audits in getting brutally honest with the numbers[29:19] – Final advice for investors stuck in the financial fog5 Key TakeawaysFalse starts are part of the process. Jason didn't get Profit First right until he let go of control and got help.Delegating finances can be your superpower. Hiring his daughter to manage the system changed everything.Profit First brings peace. It gave Jason clarity, confidence, and control over his money and decisions.You can't fix what you won't face. Financial audits and coaching helped Jason confront what wasn't working.There's no shame in getting help.

Are we truly characters with agency, or are we just playing out our programming in the great video game of life? Contrary to those in his field who claim that free will is an illusion, neuroscientist Kevin Mitchell insists that we're agents who wield our decision-making mechanism for our own purposes. Listen as the author of Free Agents: How Evolution Gave Us Free Will explains to EconTalk's Russ Roberts why the debate between free will and determinism rests on a flawed foundation, and how the evolution of the ability to make choices and take actions provides the best argument for human agency. Topics include why habits, rather than simply limiting our freedom, also help us live better lives, and the role emotions such as guilt, shame, and regret play in building our character.

Reflection can be uncomfortable, especially when the year did not go the way you planned.In this episode, I walk through why reflection is meant to create clarity, not self-punishment. The last month of the year often magnifies comparison, pressure, and second-guessing, but none of those move you forward. What does move you forward is learning the lesson, releasing the shame, and continuing to take action anyway.We talk about why you do not need a new year to create a new outcome, why readiness is a myth, and why discipline and consistency matter more than motivation. Whether this year felt successful, disappointing, or somewhere in between, your experience still holds value if you extract the lesson without letting it define you.In this episode, you will learn how to:Reflect without turning the past into regretSeparate emotion from execution while honoring bothDrop shame without avoiding accountabilityBuild momentum through small, consistent actionsFinish the year strong without burnout or pressureMove forward with clarity instead of comparisonThis conversation reframes reflection as a tool for alignment, not judgment. Progress does not require perfection, a fresh calendar, or the right feeling. It requires one decision, one action, and the willingness to move forward differently.Take the lesson. Drop the shame.

Have you ever had that one memory that sits in the back of your mind?  That thing you wish you'd done differently? Something you didn't say, something you did say, the opportunity you passed up, the relationship you didn't repair, or the career move you waited too long to make?  Most people don't just have one regret; they carry an entire portfolio of regrets with them.  And if you're an accountant, a tax preparer, or you're a high-stress professional, you likely have a detail-driven brain, and regret often impacts you a little differently. Because you're used to precision. You're used to accuracy. You're used to double-checking before you file anything. So when your brain looks back at your life, it tends to audit every moment with the same level of scrutiny.  And suddenly?

*Listener Discretion: This episode includes discussion of graphic violence and disturbing content. Some listeners may find it upsetting. Please take care while listening and consider skipping this episode if you are sensitive to these topics. In this Healthy Mind, Healthy Life episode, Charu sits down with Bernard “Chalky” White to unpack a resilience-first life story that goes from childhood abuse to policing to a bold midlife pivot into ski instructing and global travel. The core framework is brutally simple and weirdly powerful. Two questions that cut through procrastination, fear and regret: “What if I don't?” and “What if I do?” Chalky explains how those questions helped him resign from a career he'd grown to hate, rebuild his identity and keep moving forward even after witnessing traumatic events on the job. If you're stuck in a loop of overthinking, low confidence or “I'm too late” energy, this conversation is a practical mindset reset focused on action, courage and mental health. About the Guest: Bernard “Chalky” White is a former UK police officer turned long-time ski instructor and author. He shares lessons from adversity, career reinvention and his book Keep Chewing the Granite: How Two Questions Can Change Your Life, built around a decision-making method designed to replace regret with forward motion. Key Takeaways: Resilience is not a personality trait. It is a repeatable decision you practice when life feels heavy and your options look limited. The “What if I don't?” question exposes real costs. Regret, stagnation and staying stuck in a career or identity that drains you. The “What if I do?” question creates momentum. It turns fear into a plan and replaces avoidance with intentional action. Procrastination often hides clarity. Chalky knew what he wanted for years, then one honest night of questions forced a clean decision. Reinvention is allowed at any age. Starting skiing at 26 and building a decades-long path proves “late” is usually just a story. Trauma can shape you without owning you. Chalky acknowledges hard memories while choosing humor, meaning and forward progress. A strong mindset is not “positive vibes.” It is confronting consequences, choosing courage and doing the tough stuff anyway. Simple tools scale. Two questions can support mental health, career change, confidence and decision-making across business and life. When you feel stuck, ask better questions. Then take one small step that matches the answer you actually want to live.

As she plunges into the supernatural depths of her desires, she uncovers a world where passion knows no bounds and the boundaries between life and death blur. Finn's spirit calls to her, weaving a tale of love intertwined with BDSM and longing that transcends the physical realm.In a journey filled with tearjerking revelations and tantalizing encounters, Tess must confront the truth of Finn's demise and the powerful connection that binds them—one that could either set her free or drown her in desire forever. Join Tess as she navigates the stormy waters of love, loss, and the supernatural, discovering that some ties can never be severed, and the heart's deepest yearnings can lead to the most unexpected places. Will she find closure, or will she drown in the depths of her desire?

This week's solo episode I pick back up with Morgan Housel's The Art of Spending Money. As I read through it, the book continues to prove how much of our relationship with money is shaped by our upbringing and expectations. I discuss why contentment matters as much as income, why comparison is not only the thief of joy but can be poisonous, and how money buys freedom only when you stop letting others' opinions steer your choices.I also dig into the bigger themes Housel raises around happiness, independence, and the quiet traps people fall into when they chase status instead of meaning. It's a reminder that good money decisions start in your head long before they show up in your bank account.Also this week's biggest political and financial stories – from Venezuela tensions and US military moves to IQ data, poverty studies, S&P dominance, housing costs, global investing trends, consumer stats, America's shifting cultural landscape, and much more.

Steve spent more than two decades building video games, working with a team that felt more like family than coworkers. By all measures, he loved his work. But a heart attack in 2021 changed everything, and it became the moment that pushed him to rethink the one thing he'd always said he wanted someday: an early retirement.In this episode, Steve sits down with James Conole, CFP®, to share how a health scare, a divorce, and years of slowly learning how to budget and invest turned into the freedom he now wakes up to every day. He didn't leave work because he hated his job. He left because he finally understood how valuable his time had become and how much life he still wanted to live.Steve talks about losing 70 pounds, rebuilding his health through trial-and-error fitness routines, and the joy of discovering things he never had energy for during his career: jazz bands, improv lessons, spontaneous travel, and even acting classes. He also opens up about moving back to Arizona just in time to support his mom through a cancer diagnosis, a moment that revealed exactly how meaningful this new freedom is.His story is a reminder that retirement isn't just a math problem. It's a life problem that you can solve by knowing what you value and experimenting until your days feel like your own again. And for Steve, these last two and half years have been better than he imagined.Watch this episode of Retirement Reality — where real retirees share the wake-up calls, reinventions, and surprising joys that define life on the other side of work.Want to be a guest on James' show to help others by sharing your story?

Renee Graziano joins Ian Bick for a conversation about growing up in a powerful mob family, marrying her ex-husband Hector Pagan, discovering he was a rat, and navigating the chaos that came with her father Anthony Graziano's prison time. Known for her breakout role on Mob Wives, Renee opens up about the reality of being raised in organized crime, the emotional toll of betrayal, her battles with addiction, and how fame magnified everything she was already struggling with. She breaks down what viewers never saw on Mob Wives, how the show changed her life, what it was really like being one of the most recognizable faces on reality TV, and how she's been rebuilding her life with honesty and strength. #ReneeGraziano #MobWives #MafiaStories #OrganizedCrime #TrueCrimePodcast #MobLife #CrimeDocumentary #ianbick Thank you to AURA FRAMES & PRIZEPICKS for sponsoring this episode: Aura Frames: Exclusive $35 off Carver Mat at https://on.auraframes.com/LOCKEDIN.
