Rules We Never Question: Rethinking Internalized Shame

Try our FREE 3 day mindset Reset Challenge! https://www.thedigitaldojo.net/3-Day-Mindset-Reset

Shame is one of the most misunderstood emotional experiences - and one of the most damaging. Together let's explore why shame doesn’t actually serve healing, how it differs from guilt, and why happiness feels unsafe when shame is quietly running in the background. Guilt says: I did something wrong. Shame says: I am wrong. When shame lives underneath our lives, happiness becomes something we distract ourselves into - not something we trust. Healing begins when we recognize the difference and reclaim innocence, self-worth, and compassion.
