In this book, you will see that most, if not all, of us have experienced some form of shame--that unwanted, deep, dehumanizing emotion which leaves us paralyzed. We might experience shame because of what we've done to someone or because of what someone has done to us. No matter how it comes, shame has toxic effects. In this book you will see that shame does not have to be a life sentence. You can experience joy on the other side of shame if you continue to move forward.
