237. The psychology of shame

237. The psychology of shame

Shame follows us everywhere. So many of us are bound by shame about our past, our mistakes, our identity, our looks, our decisions and choices. This can make living a meaningful and fulfilling life incredibly difficult when you have your own personal, shame bully following you everywhere. In todays episode we learn:

  • How shame gets implanted in us
  • The links between shame and trauma
  • Shame vs. guilt
  • How shame manifests in hidden ways
  • What a life without shame could look like?
  • How to release shame by communicating with your inner child
  • How to shut down shame spirals
  • My own personal story of body shaming

Listen now! I hope this releases you from the heavy burden of shame.
