#82: ”Shame can only survive in silence” by Brené Brown

Let's talk about shame.

Why do we have it?

What's really the point of it?

Shame is something we all experience. Yet most of us don't like to talk about it.

Why?

Because shame may be the most painful and primitive emotion we experience.

Today’s main character, Brené Brown, defines shame as:

"The intensely painful feeling or experience of believing that we are flawed and therefore unworthy of love and belonging."

Drawing on Buddhist wisdom and yogic wisdom and on behavioral science, leaning on Brené Brown's research, we cross-examine and unpack the concept of shame - and explore the quote:

"Shame can only survive in silence."

Our longest episode so far - and perhaps our best?
