16. The Hidden Cost of Shame: How It Shapes Us and Our Parenting

  • Summary

  • Many of us avoid sitting alone with our thoughts, but why? This episode explores how childhood shame shapes our inner critic, making self-reflection feel unbearable. We dive into a fascinating study where people chose electric shocks over silence and unpack why shame—especially from childhood—makes avoidance feel safer than introspection.

    We also examine how shame-based discipline impacts us as adults and how we unintentionally pass it down to our kids. More importantly, we discuss how to break the cycle by using discipline that teaches without harming self-worth. If you’re ready to challenge old narratives and create a more connected approach to parenting, this episode is for you.
