About this episode

The episode discusses shame and negative thinking, emphasizing the importance of empathy and self-awareness in changing one's narrative.

Let's look at shame and negative thinking and discuss how to slow down, gain awareness, and soothe your system. Our hosts focus on the essential tool of empathy -- especially for yourself -- as a way to understand what story you’re making up, and change that story by looking for the positive even in difficult moments.
