About this episode

What is the one thing you don't want anyone else to know about you?

That's shame.

In this episode, Katie speaks with holistic health coach Ryan Rose Evans about how to identify shame and then let go of it.

They discuss:

  • What shame actually is
  • Why most of us don't realise we have shame and how to spot it in ourselves
  • How shame manifests physically in the body
  • The things Katie and Ryan feel shame about
  • How to clear shame with the support of a healer or a trusted person in your life
  • And why we shouldn't feel shame about having shame
