Show Notes:
In this session we’re bringing back our friend, shame. More specifically the shame that can creep up around “failures”. Who decided what a failure was anyway? Shame is often referred to as “the great inhibitor” and working through softening the borders to this inhibitor opens up the path forward.

It can be so easy to equate our “goodness” with the ability we have to not mess up, or fail. And when we haven’t been taught how to develop capacity to feel discomfort within ourselves, even the smallest of “failures” can elicit large amounts of shame. Join us in this conversation as we explore fear of failure, the avoidance of shame, and how to step into our lives a bit more fully.
