What Really Matters: Everyday Spirituality

Ep. 103 Healing Childhood Shame

Listen Later

This week I'm continuing my mini-series on childhood trauma by talking specifically about shame, which many of us carry into adulthood. This episode includes:

  • The difference between guilt and shame
  • How shame has been used as a tool by parents, teachers, religious leaders, other adults in our lives, and even our peers
  • How shame undermines our belief in ourselves to grow and change
  • 3 dysfunctional responses to the pain of shame
  • Steps to engage with shame and heal it
