Cringey Memories

Do you ever look back on your life and sometimes cringe at the things you or someone did? I will be the first to admit that I did some weird stuff that makes me cringe hard because I was an awkward teenager with very few friends. Anytime those cringey thoughts enter my mind, I try to dismiss them immediately because some of those memories are humiliating. Let’s face it, we are all guilty of saying or doing things because of our desire to fit in at times. It happens to the best us.

What about cringey memories that involve someone other than yourself? Those can be tough too. I am cringing right now because a cringe memory about something I witnessed popped into my head. The level of secondhand embarrassment I experience is unreal!

Here’s the thing, we all have cringey memories. Some of us more than others, but on my next podcast, I will be discussing the cringey memories that make us laugh, not cry or run away in shame. There is nothing wrong with laughing at ourselves from time to time. It helps to remind us not to take ourselves too seriously. I know for a fact that I will not make it through this next podcast without laughing because every time I share this cringe memory, myself and those who hear the story always end up laughing so hard that we cry.

So, what exactly did I do? Be sure to check out my podcast next Thursday to hear exactly what I did. I will be interested to know if anyone else did something similar or if they can relate.
