What experiences and situations have you had that have guided you to where you are now? Have they been significant events or just small nudges? Everyone has a different story of how they got to where they are. Kyira Wackett, a licensed therapist and shame expert, shares how she became passionate about helping people overcome shame. She discusses her background in wanting to be a doctor and how her experiences with her mother's work in hospice care influenced her desire to help others.Many of us struggle with doing what we think we are supposed to do versus what we want to do. This causes a shame cycle. Kyira discussed the concept of shame and how it affects people's beliefs about themselves and their ability to belong. She has explored how shame is triggered by the fear of disconnection and the pressure to meet societal expectations, leading to feelings of unworthiness and self-doubt.This is a great conversation focusing on self-love, healing, and giving you permission to give yourself grace.DID YOU ENJOY THIS EPISODE?
