183 - The Unshaming Way: A Compassionate Guide to Dismantling Shame w/ David Bedrick

In this week’s episode, we’re joined by author, mental health expert, and professor David Bedrick as he discusses his revolutionary approach to dismantling shame and reclaiming our authentic selves. With his latest book, The Unshaming Way: A Compassionate Guide to Dismantling Shame, David offers a trauma-informed lens on how shame shapes our behaviors, often lurking in the shadows of emotions like anger and procrastination.David dives deep into the roots of shame, exploring how it forms when we experience trauma but are denied the space or tools to express ourselves. He emphasizes the importance of unshaming—inviting us to see our supposed flaws not as problems to be fixed, but as pathways to our own strength and authenticity. As we explore concepts from his new book, endorsed by Gabor Maté, we discuss practical tools for unlearning self-blame, understanding shame as an internal viewpoint, and living life aligned with our true selves.Whether you’ve struggled with shame or are simply curious about how it shows up in your life, this episode offers insightful ways to start your own unshaming journey.PRE-ORDER DAVID'S BOOK HERE > The Unshaming Way: A Compassionate Guide to Dismantling Shame--Heal From Trauma, Unlearn Self-Blame, and Reclaim Your Story ⬇️DAMN THE JOIN SHITSHOW - ADULT CHILD HEALING COMMUNITY⬇️https://theshitshow.mn.co4 weekly zoom support groups (Sun 3: 30 pm EST, Mon 8:30 pm EST, Tues 1 pm EST, & Thurs 8:30 pm EST)Support community at your fingertips with discussion boards and chat📰SIGN UP FOR SHITSHOW NATION - ADULT CHILD NEWSLETTER👩HELP A GIRL & CAT EAT🐱  www.buymeacoffee.com/adultchild🛍️SHITSHOW MERCH🛍️www.adultchildpodcast.com/shop🎙️NEW TO THE POD🎙️How I learned I was an Adult Child - The Tale of 2 BriansTHE LAUNDRY LIST - Common Characteristics of an Adult ChildFollow Andrea on socialwww.instagram.com/adultchildpodwww.tiktok.com/@adultchildpodhttps://www.youtube.com/@adultchildpodMid-roll music source (I do not own the rights of song - for entertainment purposes only, no monetization)Our Sponsors:* Check out Sunbasket: https://sunbasket.com/ADULTCHILD* Get 15% off on your entire first order at happymammoth.com with code ADULTCHILD at checkout!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

It is important to be committed to the process and willing to put in the effort to improve your relationship. If you're not sure if you want to put in the effort to save the relationship, then there's no point. Seeing a therapist means bringing up difficult emotions and having uncomfortable conversations in order to resolve your marriage problems.

thank you very much for this episode. particularly appreciate willingness to exhibit what an IFS session is like (many professionals on podcasts seem to avoid revealing inner workings of their sessions) and willingness to be vulnerable for the benefit of all of us. 🙏🙏
