   Shame

   Shame is something that lives in most of us, sometimes we are aware and sometimes not. In this episode we explore the concept of shame and how it dictates behavior. “If you put shame in a petri dish, it needs three ingredients to grow exponentially: secrecy, silence, and judgment. If you put the same amount of shame in the petri dish and douse it with empathy, it can't survive". Brene Brown
