Have you ever searched “How to avoid shame?” on Google? When I was working out what topics to discuss on this podcast, I did a bit of keyword research. I knew I wanted to talk about shame at some point, but I wasn’t sure what people wanted to know about it. “How to avoid shame” and “fear of vulnerability” were the most common searches. I was floored!
This immediately rang alarm bells because, to me, any time someone starts trying to avoid something, it’s the equivalent of bottling it up. The more we avoid something, the more anxious and scared we become!
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- What shame is
- How to identify your shame triggers
- Where your shame is coming from
- How to build shame resilience to reduce shame’s power over you
How do you want and not want to be seen by others? Question why this is and what you’re making it mean. Grab a piece of paper or a journal for the exercise in this episode because you’re going to blow your own mind!
If you want to know why we’re wired for connection, what questions you need to seriously ask yourself, what the 4 elements of shame resilience are and how to demonstrate it in real life… then hit play!
