We've heard for years from Brene Brown, "We desperately don't want to talk about shame, and we're not willing to talk about it. Yet, the only way to resolve shame is to talk about it." So we are.
Join us for this truthful, maybe gut-wrenching talk about shame and guilt and midlife, as Cam and Amelia guide you through these problematic emotions. But remember, these should be emotions, instead of getting stuck as a mood.

00:00 Inquiring about the purpose of guilt and shame.
05:17 Creating unnecessary boundaries based on false perceptions.
09:10 Caring for aging parents while setting boundaries.
13:16 Differentiate between shame and guilt for lasting change.
15:15 Labels are like masks, connecting but not defining.
19:48 Honesty, vulnerability, and accepting inevitable relationship conflicts.
21:26 Seeking authenticity, empathy, and grace with others.
24:27 Struggled at work, found success, transformed.
27:30 Overcoming fear leads to confidence and resilience.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• Authenticity Through Alignment: Assess your actions and values by using your calendar, checkbook, or credit card statement as concrete data points for self-accounting. Aligning actions with values can lead to greater authenticity and self-awareness.
• Liberating From Labels: Move away from shame as a tool for change and from labeling. Shedding negative self-identifications can lead to emotional freedom and deeper connections with others.
• Vulnerability Breeds Connection: Embrace vulnerability as a path to love, belonging, joy, and innovation. Being honest with oneself and opening up to trusted others can lead to deeper connections and personal growth.
