We've heard for years from Brene Brown, "We desperately don't want to talk about shame, and we're not willing to talk about it. Yet, the only way to resolve shame is to talk about it." So we are.

Being honest with oneself and opening up to trusted others can lead to deeper connections and personal growth.
