Sometimes, when I'm talking to Christian communities, I'll talk about the differencing shame based and grace based churches, and shame based churches being very rejecting, very do not send, do not let people know this.
Shame can be a heavy burden, shaping how we see ourselves and interact with others. In this episode of 'Mental Insights', host Brendan Cutuli sits down with Dr. Shawn Horn, a seasoned psychologist with over 27 years of experience, to unpack the complex nature of shame. Dr. Horn, also the host of the 'Inspired Living Podcast', brings a wealth of knowledge from the therapy room to this conversation.
They discuss how shame forms, its roots in social contexts, and its profound impact on our relationships and self-identity. Dr. Horn highlights the dual nature of shame, explaining that while healthy shame can foster empathy and guide appropriate behavior, toxic shame can cripple our sense of worth. The episode delves into the role of ego in shielding us from shame’s pain but failing to provide true self-worth. Dr.
Horn offers practical advice on healing shame through compassion, shifting from shame-based communities to grace-based ones, and embracing a dialectic philosophy that allows for opposing truths to coexist. Whether you’re personally struggling with shame or supporting someone who is, this episode provides valuable insights and actionable steps towards healing.
