Episode 3 - The Hidden Cost of Identity

Today we’re talking about Self-confidence, self-esteem, identity, and dear-lord-do-we-have -to, shame.

Get ready for some Gritty Group therapy as we explore the hidden cost of identity! What is shame? How does shame control us? And what, if anything, can we do about it?
