How do you deal with regret from sacrificing personal life for work?

I was pressured by a recruiter into resigning from my previous job as quickly as possible when I received a new job offer. I was on vacation, and I wanted to resign when I was back but he shamed me by asking “do you really want to work? What would the boss think?” And I fell for it. It totally ruined my dream vacation as i was on calls with my workplace everyday managing the fallout. It created a bunch of personal issues with my family, and I deeply regret it to this day.
