Shame

Listening to Shame

Brené Brown

​

In Brene's follow up TED talk, she talks about how shame pushes us to hide our vulnerability. To pretend that we are always in control or that we never falter creates a mirage that prevents our ability to connect with each other. When we deny vulnerability, we impede our empathy. 

​

Shame survives in the shadows, so talking about it in the spotlight is the best way to squash it.
