Podcasts about shame resilience

After a long hiatus, Daring Greatly Podcast is back—and we're taking it back to the heart of why this podcast was created in the first place: embracing vulnerability.In this episode, I reflect on the journey that led me away from the mic and, more importantly, what has brought me back. Life has been full—overflowing with learning, growth, and deep alignment with my purpose. And yet, I've realized that even in seasons of joy, vulnerability still plays a vital role. Because showing up fully in the good times—without foreboding joy or bracing for loss—requires just as much courage as showing up in the hard times.Together, we'll revisit the perspective that changed my life, exploring Dr Brené Brown's wisdom on:✨ What vulnerability really is—and why it's not weakness.✨ The link between shame, fear, and our ability to experience joy.✨ How numbing discomfort also numbs love, gratitude, and connection.✨ The practice of wholehearted living and believing, "I am enough."This episode is an invitation—to myself and to you—to lean back into courage and to dare greatly once again.If this conversation resonates with you, share your thoughts with me!

This week I'm bringing you a powerful conversation I had with Emily Hughes about a big but often unspoken topic in Motherhood: SHAME Emily is a Conscious Parenting Coach and founder of Finding Flow Parenting where she empowers parents to stay centred and grounded, and helps unearth the patterns and limiting beliefs keeping them stuck. Emily is also trained in Somatics and subsequently a big believer in brain body parenting and parenting in tune with all the nervous systems in the household. During this episode, Emily shares invaluable insights around WHY so many women find themselves struck down by shame during Motherhood, and tells her own story with so much openness and honesty during about how she experienced profound shame when she became a Mum - and the impact that had on her self-esteem, relationships and sense of identity as a whole. Emily goes on to shares the healing journey she went on in order to face, process and overcome her deep-rooted shame by cultivating what she describes as "Shame Resilience", which forms a core focus of her work, and she generously guides listeners to become more shame resilient themselves so they can ultimately live more authentic and joyful lives alongside raising their kids. I really hope this episode helps normalise some of these deeply uncomfortable feelings that can so commonly come up during Motherhood - because the more we talk about them, the less alone we'll all feel.FIND OUT MORE ABOUT EMILY HUGHES:- Follow Emily on Instagram HERE- Visit Emily's website and find out more about her work HERE- Access Emily's FREE masterclass: Stop Yelling & Start Thriving HEREABOUT ME!

In this week's Find Your Feminine Fire episode, Amanda discusses why it's crucial to create safe spaces for self-expression and how to bounce back from shame. She breaks down where shame comes from, how it affects us, and even shares Dr. Brené Brown's thoughts on shame and vulnerability.  Amanda also talks about how rituals can help set the stage for creativity and sexual expression. She mixes in personal stories and offers real tips on how to push back against shame, build self-trust, and celebrate the little victories to stay true to yourself. Don't miss next week's episode, where she'll talk more about building a supportive community. Key Takeaways from this Episode: Creating a Sacred Space: Whether for creativity or intimacy, setting up a dedicated, clutter-free space can really help you focus and be present. Lighting a candle, playing music, or simply clearing your area can signal to your brain that it's time to get in the zone. Shame Resilience: Shame can seriously hold us back, especially when it comes to sexual or creative expression. Recognizing where that shame comes from, questioning its validity, and sharing your feelings (even if it's just in a journal) can be super healing. Express Yourself: There's this idea of the "Expressionista"—the part of you that's all about expressing your true self. Nurturing this side of yourself, whether in art, in the bedroom, or just in daily life, helps you feel more alive and connected. Handling Self-Criticism: When those harsh, self-critical thoughts pop up, sometimes you've got to stand up to them. Just like you'd defend a friend, you need to protect yourself from that inner critic and remind yourself that you're doing the best you can. Good Enough is Great: Perfectionism can be a real buzzkill. Sometimes, getting something done and out there is better than holding back because it's not "perfect." Trust that what you're putting out is valuable, even if it's not flawless. Don't forget to subscribe to the podcast and leave a review if you enjoyed this episode.

1. Brené and Barrett share their parenting strategy that Brené calls “the opposite of raising a child that's full of shame.” 2. The family of origin roles that Brené (the Protector) and Barrett (the Peacekeeper) had to adjust in order to work together – and the two keys to working well with family.   3. The ways in which a child who grows up living on eggshells becomes an adult who is fearful – and how that fear shows up differently for Brené, Barrett, Glennon, and Amanda.    4. The hilarious moment when each sister confesses a secret that they fear the other believes about them–and we find out whether or not it's true.  5. How Brené and Barrett are walking through the grief of their mother's sudden decline, and how they circle back when the stress of that grief makes them shitty to each other.   About Brené:  Dr. Brené Brown is a research professor at the University of Houston where she holds the Huffington Foundation Endowed Chair at The Graduate College of Social Work.She has spent the past two decades studying courage, vulnerability, shame, and empathy, is the author of six #1 New York Times bestsellers, and is the host of the weekly podcasts Unlocking Us and Dare to Lead.  Brené's books have been translated into more than 30 languages and titles include:  Dare to Lead, Braving the Wilderness, Rising Strong, Daring Greatly, and The Gifts of Imperfection. Most recently Brené collaborated with Tarana Burke to co-edit You Are Your Best Thing: Vulnerability, Shame Resilience, and the Black Experience.  In her latest #1 New York Times bestseller, ATLAS OF THE HEART, which has been adapted for television and now streaming on HBO Max, she takes us on a journey through eighty-seven of the emotions and experiences that define what it means to be human.  Brené lives in Houston, Texas, with her husband, Steve.

If you have read it, this is a great opportunity to revisit the myths around vulnerability and to take a moment to reflect on how you are applying this to your life, and how you might look at things with new lenses and examples. We primarily focus on the vulnerability myths that Brene talks about in her book. Some are bound to feel familiar. Perhaps the myth you can go it alone? Or vulnerability is a weakness? We'll even talk about some boundaries that go with vulnerability and figuring out who you can trust. I even trust you with some pretty stark examples of vulnerable points in my life. I'm sure it will bring to mind vulnerable points in yours and reinforce the relationships that were of value. We also take a moment to reflect on Shame and Shame Resilience, because no conversation around vulnerability, Daring Greatly, or Brene Brown would be complete without it. It is only a small reflection, so be sure to explore some of Brene's other work or send me a note on where you should start if this connects with you and is something you want to explore further.If you are interested in reading “Daring Greatly” snag your copy here- https://bookshop.org/a/90599/9781592408412 Other Books by Brene Brown:Rising StrongThe Gifts of ImperfectionBraving the WildernessA little about your host –Shawna Rodrigues is an entrepreneur, author, and consultant who found the alignment of her many talents and passions in podcasting.

On a scale of 1 to 10 with my excitement level today, I am definitely at a 10. I completed a Google Survey last year in preparation for the 2023 Brave Women at Work podcast season. I asked who you wanted to hear from and if you had any dream guests. Well, today is one of the dream guests on your list!

This felt like a fun reunion, and it was great to reconnect with Andrea.

Episode 83 – LOVE part 1: Finding Love For Who You Are, with Aimee GianniThis month I'll be talking about the LOVE part of the KNOW, LOVE, GROW model for well-being. Once we start being more aware of ourselves, who we are, and what we have been creating in our own lives, it almost always brings up shame for us. But, shame will block us from the very thing we need to be able to move forward. Aimee Gianni and I have a conversation about how love and acceptance are the connecting piece between knowing who we are and growing into the next version of ourselves. When we work on ourselves and work through the Know, Love, Grow process, many relationship problems will take care of themselves. Another benefit from doing this work is that as YOU do the work, your family will see it (eventually!) and you will become a person who has more influence on those around you.  To help you combat shame, I've created a free worksheet for you to download:Download February's training – Combatting Shame with Courage, Compassion, and Connection If you missed the last free training, you can still get it here:Download January's pdf training – 30 journaling questions to get to know yourself better Want to hear more from Aimee? Sign up for Aimee's Love NotesAre you wondering if coaching is right for you?

Today I'm talking about something that no one wants to talk about: shame. Let's go there, get uncomfortable, and build our shame resilience together. By building our shame resilience we can become more effective changemakers! When we allow ourselves to feel shame without judgment we can overcome people pleasing, fear of judgment, and fear of getting canceled. Shame resilience allows us to step up and speak out courageously! You can find the full show notes here. Get the free guide Self-care for Changemakers for more support in creating the change you want to see in the world without sacrificing your health and well-being!

In this episode, we are joined by recurring guest Madelyn Padilla UN, and Samantha Archuleta MA, LPCC to talk about shame, resilience, and self-forgiveness.

Anderson is a master-certified life coach and author who's work is for women who wish to be the leader in the relationship they have with their mothers. Difficult mother-daughter relationships are her jam. Her coaching practice is trauma-informed and based on intersectional feminist principles. She recognizes that what's possible personally is what's possible collectively and that the Mother Wound is not actually about mothers but about systems and structures that oppress all women. She understands that adage "hurt people hurt people" but prefers to say "people who are unaware of their hurt sometimes hurt other people" while acknowledging that cultivating compassion and empathy doesn't mean you have to hang out with hurt people and that healthy boundaries (up to an including going "no contact" even if just temporarily) are at the heart of healthy relationships.

Ever find yourself desiring deep, rich connections with your partner or your friends and family but have a hellova time letting your guard down? Maybe you even find yourself craving deep intimacy but you're absolutely terrified to really “be seen”. I mean, isn't it just safer to stay walled up? Well… if the other party was vulnerable first… maybe then it would be safe. Maybe. Why is it so damn hard to be vulnerable? If you've found your mind spinning with the same questions, you are certainly not the exception. Many of us crave rich, soulful connections with our loved ones, but we're absolutely paralyzed by fear of being vulnerable. So we put up massive walls, don't let people in, and then wonder why we don't have intimacy. In this episode, I dig into the detrimental notions we're inundated within our culture, how it sends major mixed messages about vulnerability, and why you need to drastically change the narrative if you want to experience intimacy in your relationships. And guess what? You get to take as many baby steps as you need to feel safe. Promise. This pod explores: How our society shapes our views of safety in relationships (And how that isn't doing you any favors) Challenging the notion that vulnerability equals weakness, when in reality vulnerability equals courage The three simplest ways to gradually and lovingly step into vulnerability (without feeling like you might die) The real cost of not allowing room for vulnerability in your life HIRE ME TO SPEAK AT YOUR EVENT!

1. Brené and Barrett share their parenting strategy that Brené calls “the opposite of raising a child that's full of shame.” 2. The family of origin roles that Brené (the Protector) and Barrett (the Peacekeeper) had to adjust in order to work together–and the two keys to working well with family.   3. The ways in which a child who grows up living on eggshells becomes an adult who is fearful–and how that fear shows up differently for Brené, Barrett, Glennon, and Amanda.    4. The hilarious moment when each sister confesses a secret that they fear the other believes about them–and we find out whether or not it's true.  5. How Brené and Barrett are walking through the grief of their mother's sudden decline, and how they circle back when the stress of that grief makes them shitty to each other.   About Brené:  Dr. Brené Brown is a research professor at the University of Houston where she holds the Huffington Foundation Endowed Chair at The Graduate College of Social Work.She has spent the past two decades studying courage, vulnerability, shame, and empathy, is the author of six #1 New York Times bestsellers, and is the host of the weekly podcasts Unlocking Us and Dare to Lead.  Brené's books have been translated into more than 30 languages and titles include: Dare to Lead, Braving the Wilderness, Rising Strong, Daring Greatly, and The Gifts of Imperfection. Most recently Brené collaborated with Tarana Burke to co-edit You Are Your Best Thing: Vulnerability, Shame Resilience, and the Black Experience.  In her latest #1 New York Times bestseller, ATLAS OF THE HEART, which has been adapted for television and now streaming on HBO Max, she takes us on a journey through eighty-seven of the emotions and experiences that define what it means to be human.  Brené lives in Houston, Texas, with her husband, Steve. They have two children, Ellen and Charlie. TW: @BreneBrown IG: @BreneBrown About Barrett:  Barrett Guillen is Chief of Staff for Brené Brown Education and Research Group. With her team, Barrett supports both Brené and the organization by helping to prioritize competing demands, managing relationships, and building connective tissue and strategy across all business initiatives. Barrett holds bachelor's and master's degrees in Kinesiology from the University of Houston. After more than a decade in education in the Texas Panhandle, Barrett and her family moved back to the Houston area to join Brene's team in making the world a braver place. Having the opportunity to work with her sisters every day has been one of the great joys of her life. Outside the office, you can find Barrett spending time with her family (immediate and extended), enjoying her daughter's games, eating her husband's famous burgers, floating in the water (any water!), or on the pickle ball court.

This week's episode is the edited webinar "It's Complicated" where I talk about some strategies for dealing with complications. I have created a full 3 month program focusing on this (registration now closed), because so much is involved in our reaction to complications. This episode focuses on the most important aspect of complications: shame resilience. If you can keep yourself from feeling shame, then you are more likely to recover from a complication. You will be available to receive help from others. Speaking of help from others, Dr. Laura Brown offered a tip that can help deal with the trauma of complications. After you have a complication, go to the store and buy the tallest candle. Light it every night to honor the patient you lost. When the candle is out, make that be the end of your second guessing yourself and your care. This is a way to honor the patient and yourself. She stated, "I find it focused my ‘tape' in my head and limited it to candle time. During one bad week of residency, I had a record of seven candles. It's never been that bad since. It kept me from burning out."

1. How to know when to dig deep–and when to quit digging.  2. The greatest blocker of connection–and how to remove it. 3. How to handle our fear (without obsessively controlling our people and our environment). 4.

Season 3 of All Ears kicks off with a rich and varied conversation with Me Too Movement founder Tarana Burke. Thought you knew the Me Too story? Think again! Burke's inspiring new memoir Unbound: My Story Of Liberation And The Birth Of The Me Too Movement is out this week. Burke has been in the trenches of movement work for the better part of two decades, transforming her own experience as a survivor into a vision for helping those in crisis to get help and those dealing with past trauma to heal. Working for so long at a grassroots level, primarily in communities of color, Burke tells Abby that her focus is for the benefit of all: “[My work] never, ever leaves anybody out. There's not a single white woman who will not benefit from my work being grounded in or centering black women and girls.” Tune in for an inspiring conversation!Find Tarana on Twitter: @TaranaBurke and @MeTooMVMTContent Warning: This episode contains discussion of rape and sexual assault.EPISODE LINKSUnbound: My Story Of Liberation And The Birth Of The Me Too Movement (Tarana Burke)Me Too Movement website21st Century Leadership MovementBefore the Mayflower: A History of Black America (Lerone Bennett)Maya Angelou book covers (Google)You Are Your Best Thing: Vulnerability, Shame Resilience, and the Black Experience (Tarana Burke & Brené Brown, editors)
