Shame is a hard emotion to talk about because we feel shame about having shame. Rasanath and Michael break down this complex emotion by unpacking an experience of shame that Michael experienced brought on by a feeling of not being productive enough. They examine the root causes of shame, the problems that arise when we feel shame, and what it will take to reconnect with our hearts so that we can work through our shame in a healthy manner. They also look at the driving force behind ambition and how to know if ambition is being used as a coping mechanism for shame.
