Shame. It traps you in chains of depression & despair. It’s a thousand pound weight that constantly reminds you that not only have you done something bad, but that you ARE bad. It convinces you that if someone got to know you & found out what you’re really like, they would turn away in disgust. It tells you you’re unloveable and unworthy, thats there’s no hope, you can never change, that this is just who you are. It keeps you in toxic cycles you can’t escape from. But what if I told you that you CAN escape? That it’s possible to be free from shame? I was set free. You can be too.

In this episode we will discuss possible origins of shame and how this affects how we approach it. I also share some excerpts from Dr. Brené Brown’s book “I Thought It Was Just Me, (But It Isn’t)”. She has been a shame researcher for many years and has many things to say about shame vs. guilt, the myth of constructive shame, and spirituality.
