Understanding Shame: Insights from Brené Brown's Atlas of the Heart
Manage episode 454901412 series 3434377
In "Atlas of the Heart," Brené Brown discusses shame as a powerful and often debilitating emotion. She defines shame as the intensely painful feeling or experience of believing that we are flawed and therefore unworthy of love, belonging, or connection. It's different from guilt, which is about behavior ("I did something bad") whereas shame is about the self ("I am bad"). Brown explores how shame can manifest in different aspects of our lives and emphasizes the importance of empathy, courage, and vulnerability in overcoming shame and embracing our authentic selves. Her insights into shame are deeply rooted in her extensive research on vulnerability and human connection.
