It’s something that’s crept up on me. Didn’t think it was part of my experience. As I unravel the onion or rip apart the hand of garlic more like it, I’m finding parts of me that have suppressed out of survival. Integrating all the emotional imprints has been the most challenging work of my life. I’m afraid my readers are in for more!

Very powerful Josh. I can relate to feeling shame in one form or another every day of my life. It's definitely something I've been pondering about a lot lately, examining where did the shame imposed on me growing up come from and how did it reflect on my life later on. It's a lot to process and I'm still none the wiser.

No shame in my game, but I am deeply ashamed of others, particularly when they haven't the grace or humility to feel shame for themselves.
