How do shame, empathy, and leadership intersect in today’s workplace? In this candid and thought-provoking episode, host Rebecca Dhrimaj and psychotherapist Stephanie Jeans unpack the psychology of human behavior, from the complexities of sex addiction to the rising tide of anxiety among younger generations. Together, they explore how shame can hinder healing, why empathy is essential in leadership, and what it really takes to create a psychologically safe environment where people feel seen, heard, and valued in the workplace.
