Shame is one of the most powerful—and often misunderstood—human emotions. But what role does it play in Jewish thought and life?

In this episode, we explore:

• Why do we feel shame? Is it just a negative emotion, or does it serve a deeper purpose?

• Is shame a good thing? How Jewish sources distinguish between toxic shame and healthy shame that guides us toward growth.

• How should we respond to shame? Practical wisdom on transforming shame into an opportunity for reflection, connection, and change.

Join us as we uncover how Judaism frames shame not as something to hide from, but as a tool for personal development and a reminder of our potential.
