Alya talks to Saudi shadow worker Maryam Ghouth about the long-term effects of growing up with Shame on our mental health and how it contributes to the way we conduct ourselves in the world. Maryam introduces us to shadow work, and how it can help people who may feel they are living a double life and exploring self-censorship.
This episode also includes a conversation with licensed therapist and director of Clinical Operations at Betterhelp, Haesue Jo. Who delves deeper into how we can recognise how shame manifests itself within children and through to adult behaviour.
Talk of Shame is a Womena Production.
