Published: Aug. 24, 2022, 9:45 a.m.

b'We\\u2019re all storytellers. Unlike any other living creature\\u2014unless you might find yourself in a C.S. Lewis novel\\u2014humans are the only animals that tell stories in the way we do. It is in those stories that our shame takes up residence, with all of the mechanics we have learned about so far, and begins to tell a story that leads to our destruction. Hence, it\\u2019s not enough to know about the mechanics of how shame works. We need to know where in our stories it first inserted itself. Listen in as we inquire in which story does each of us believe we are living? The answers we discover may surprise you\\u2014and will also begin to pave the way toward freedom from the straitjacket in which shame has bound us.'
