Let's Relieve Regret: Honest conversations for women who are tired of overthinking, people-pleasing, perfectionism and carrying emotional baggage.
For the woman who's tired of carrying it all.
Join Shadoe Ball and Victoria Muir-Burcea for honest conversations about letting go of guilt, regret, overwhelm, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and the impossible expectations many women place on themselves.
Each episode explores the thoughts, habits, and stories that keep us stuck while sharing practical insights, personal experiences, and plenty of laughter along the way. Together, we'll talk about self-worth, confidence, emotional wellness, stress, burnout, anxiety, relationships, personal growth, and navigating the challenges of midlife with greater self-compassion.
If you've ever felt responsible for everyone else's happiness, struggled to quiet your inner critic, battled overthinking, or wondered how to stop second-guessing yourself and start living more fully, you're in the right place.
Whether you're looking for inspiration, personal development, mental wellness strategies, or simply reassurance that you're not alone, this podcast offers a welcoming space to reflect, learn, laugh, heal, and grow.
This is your invitation to put down what no longer serves you and make room for more joy, connection, confidence, freedom, and purpose.
Because the things we carry shape our lives but so does what we're willing to let go.

In this episode, we recap our favourite moments from Season 4 and let you know what to expect in Season 5.
Like any regular episode, we start with our Check-ins. Then we move into the Cause For Applause segment - Victoria is pleased about feeling stronger as she recently hired a new personal trainer. Shadoe is happy about reaching out to her former hair stylist after years of cutting her own hair!
What makes a kick-off episode different?
Instead of sharing regrets we share the lessons we've learned along the way of this podcast experiment. We are so honoured that our guests from last season shared incredible stories, including
- ALEX (opened up about advocating for the help and healing she needed)
- LOUISE (being a mop trying to clean an ocean)
- SAM (trusting the people around us)
- NADIA (sensitivity is a gift)
- JYOTI/GEET (deleted her book)
As always, our conversation went on a few tangets, including:
- Oversharing as a mask for true vulnerability
- Capability vs. Capacity
- Tampons are taboo but bandages are normal
- Purpose of the podcast
- Why we "Choose the Bear"
We also review the feedback and questions received about the #metoo episode - some of it was surprising; and, showcased why it is still necessary to keep the conversation going.
Then, the episode ends with 3 Breaths, Refreshed for Season 5.
