Episode 227: How High Achievers Can Use Shame to Their Advantage
In this episode…
Shame thrives in secrecy.
Whether it’s the bag of cookies we devour at 1AM when everyone else is asleep…
The maxed credit cards and closets full of beautiful clothes we rarely wear…
To the rock-bottom moments after a divorce, a career loss or bankruptcy (or all 3) that force us to climb our way out of despair.
These are secrets we often keep to ourselves.
Things we wouldn’t dare reveal openly for fear of judgment (or feeling more shame).
But here’s the rub: the more we try to hide what we deem as “shameful”…
The more shame grows.
Like a tumor that starts small and unnoticeable, but that insidiously takes over our life.
In this episode of The Nancy Levin Show, I uncover why shame can actually be your superpower and the one thing that unlocks the next level or your life and career.
I also walk you through a trusted 3-step process I’ve used to help clients unhook from their own shameful stories and cultivate more courage and vulnerability.
If you’re tired of hiding, let this episode be your invitation to step boldly into the light (shame-free).
