Episode 296 - Abscess and Antidote: Shame's remedy is Vulnerability (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Join me this week as we continue the discussion about shame. In this episode, I'll talk about why shame doesn't get better by staying hidden — it gets worse.

Whether you hold a strong faith, a
Episode 292 - A Guided Meditation: Appreciating the Armor (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Let's meditate. This is not a meditation about NPD. It is a practice about the ordinary, everyday ways that all of us protect our vulnerable places with something hard. So, let's get curious about the armor.
