Disappointment is the feeling we get when an expectation that we have isn’t met. It is an emotional signal, a messenger, telling us that something is out of balance in our lives—what we want doesn’t reflect our reality.&nbsp;</p><p>For the blog and show notes: <a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-surprising-benefits-of-disappointment">https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-surprising-benefits-of-disappointment&nbsp;</a></p><p>Sign up to Patreon to get access to bonus ad-free podcasts, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;As, and more: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf">https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf</a>.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:&nbsp;</p><p>-Gladskin: Gladskin is offering my listeners 15% off plus free shipping on your first order at <a href="https://gladskin.com/collections/acne-prone?utm_source=CleaningUpTheMentalMesswDrLeaf&amp;utm_medium=podcast&amp;utm_campaign=q2_2022_podcast">https://gladskin.com/DRLEAF</a>.&nbsp;</p><p>-BetterHelp: Get 10% off their first month at <a href="https://www.betterhelp.com/drleaf">https://betterhelp.com/drleaf</a>.&nbsp;</p><p>-NOOM: Sign up for your trial at <a href="https://www.noom.com/lp/weightLossGoal?group=audio&amp;isvanity=y&amp;lang=en&amp;sp=adresults&amp;step=pros&amp;type=bakedin&amp;upv=3&amp;utm_content=drleaf&amp;utm_medium=podcast&amp;utm_source=cleaningupthementalmess">https://noom.com/DRLEAF</a>.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:&nbsp;</p><p>2:25 What disappointment is&nbsp;</p><p>3:00 Disappointment is not necessarily “bad”&nbsp;</p><p>3:20 Disappointment is a signal that we can learn from&nbsp;</p><p>3:50 Why we should not be afraid of disappointment&nbsp;</p><p>6:10 Why we need to embrace, not suppress, how we feel&nbsp;</p><p>6:50 The different ways disappointment affects us&nbsp;</p><p>7:10, 14:00 How to use mind management to reconceptualize disappointment&nbsp;</p><p>13:00 What can happen if we don’t manage our disappointment 18:15 How to turn disappointment into a learning experience&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>ADDITIONAL RESOURCES:&nbsp;</p><p>-Get my new book Cleaning up Your Mental Mess here: <a href="https://www.cleaningupyourmentalmess.com">https://www.cleaningupyourmentalmess.com</a>&nbsp;</p><p>-Download my new and improved brain detox app here:<a href="https://www.neurocycle.app"> https://neurocycle.app</a>&nbsp;</p><p>-Get a free Cleaning up Your Mental Mess workbook when you subscribe to my weekly email at drleaf.com!&nbsp;</p><p>-Sign up to join my free text program and receive mental health care tips.

In our society today, it can be hard to feel any degree of self-worth. We are bombarded with the shame of not living up to our own expectations, or the expectations of others. We cannot live up to the photoshopped and retouched images that seem to tell us that to be happy, we must look, dress or act in a certain way, or get straight As and go to an Ivy League university. We are not able to compete with celebrities and influencers—we are just one social media ‘like’ in a sea of admirers, wishing to be someone or do something.</p><p>Read the show blog here:&nbsp;https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-to-find-freedom-from-the-shame-spiral</p><p><br></p><p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:</p><p>-<strong>BetterHelp: Get 10% off their first month at&nbsp;</strong><a href="http://betterhelp.com/drleaf"><strong>betterhelp.com/drleaf</strong></a><strong>.</strong></p><p><strong>-InsideTracker: For a limited time, get 20% off the entire InsideTracker store.&nbsp;Just go to&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://info.insidetracker.com/drleaf"><strong>insidetracker.com/drleaf</strong></a><strong>.</strong></p><p><strong>-NOOM: Sign up for your trial at&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.noom.com/programs/health-weight/exsf01/?upv=3&amp;sp=adresults&amp;utm_source=cleaningupthementalmess&amp;utm_medium=podcast&amp;utm_content=drleaf&amp;type=bakedin&amp;group=audio&amp;step=pros&amp;lang=en&amp;isvanity=y#/"><strong>noom.com/DRLEAF</strong></a></p><p><br></p><p>EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:</p><p><strong>1:25 </strong>How low self-esteem &amp; shame are connected</p><p><strong>1:40</strong> What shame is</p><p><strong>2:15</strong> The difference between shame &amp; guilt</p><p><strong>3:30, 9:05</strong> The shame spiral</p><p><strong>6:20</strong> Shame &amp; the mind-brain connection</p><p><strong>9:30</strong> How easy it is to feel shame</p><p><strong>12:25, 18:27, 28:00</strong> How to exit the shame spiral</p><p><strong>24:15</strong> Don’t let negative thoughts just wander through your mind!</p><p><strong>26:00</strong> How to “edit” you shame thoughts</p><p><br></p><p>ADDITIONAL RESOURCES:</p><p>-Get my new book Cleaning up Your Mental Mess here: https://www.cleaningupyourmentalmess.com</p><p>-Download my new and improved brain detox app here: https://neurocycle.app</p><p>-Get a free Cleaning up Your Mental Mess workbook when you subscribe to my weekly email at drleaf.com!</p><p>-Sign up to join my free text program and receive mental health care tips.
