The 1️⃣ thing holding you back from greatness

In partnership with

Survival Remorse!

This week’s conversation with Arel Moodie, Co-founder of Talk A Dot, was a game-changer.

Arel introduced the concept of Survival Remorse, which often shows up as guilt, imposter syndrome, or self-sabotage when we grow beyond out roots.

His powerful perspective?

“Growth is not betrayal. It’s a tribute to where you came from.”

How to fix 3 mindsets holding you back from greatness

Caught, Not Taught: Breaking Free From Survival Remorse

High-stakes transitions often uncover two hidden challenges:

1. Survival Remorse
2. Caught, Not Taught Beliefs

Survival remorse shows up as guilt when your growth feels like a betrayal of your roots. It’s that internal conflict of asking yourself.

“Have I grown to far away from where I started?”
“Am I still connected to my story?”

On the other hand, Caught, Not Taught refers to those unspoken messages about success that we absorb from society and peers. They whisper things like:

“Success comes at a moral cost.”
“Growth makes you less relatable.”

These invisible beliefs anchor us in fear, guilt, and self-doubt, holding back our potential.
