Women today are living under the crushing weight of guilt. Here’s how to finally let go.

Women have so much guilt. Guilt for working too much. Guilt for not working enough. Guilt for saying no, for saying yes, for taking a break, for asking for help. This emotion infiltrates every role we occupy—mother, partner, daughter, friend, employee, caregiver—making joy and agency feel out of reach.

Enough is enough. In Guilt Free, psychiatrist and award-winning educator Dr. Jennifer Reid offers a science-backed and deeply compassionate guide to dismantling the forces behind excessive guilt, so you can finally make decisions based on what you need and want instead of what you think you should do.

Drawing from over a decade of clinical work with high achieving but emotionally exhausted women, Dr. Reid combines psychological insight with actionable strategies to help readers take back control, covering:

Why women’s guilt is different—and often more intense—than men’s
How societal, familial, and cultural expectations shape our emotional lives
What makes guilt useful—and what makes it toxic
How to identify your own guilt “triggers” using the Guilt Equation
How to heal through the SPEAK process, a five-step path grounded in the core tenets of psychotherapy
Practical tools to replace guilt-driven decisions with clarity, self-trust, and empowerment

Compassionate and real, Guilt Free offers a roadmap to living with more joy, purpose, and freedom—and a whole lot less guilt.
