Are you free to be unapologetically you in your relationship?

And that goes back to the shame.

Are you hiding something?

Do you feel like you have to hide and be someone else in order to be loved?

And this one is really important because often people put on these facades and we show up in relationships and our partner loves us.

But when we know we're not being ourselves, when we know we're hiding parts of ourselves

and our partner loves us, we feel very unloved.

When they are loving us but not truly knowing us.

I'm Amy and I'm Amy.

And I'm Abby.

And as women, we are constantly comparing ourselves to others.

But your life isn't supposed to look like hers.

Being your best self means standing firm in your decisions and always being willing to grow with a purpose. We get vulnerable and real with an honest look into the challenges and triumphs we all face.

Every woman listening gets the opportunity to choose what life looks like for herself.

We are so excited to have this episode with Dr. Zoe Shaw all on shame air. This was one of those

episodes where Amy and I, we talked about it beforehand. We talked about our own shame cycles,

where it showed up in the past, where it continues to show up. It brought up so much conversation,

really hard conversation. And then we go into even more detail in the episode. Dr. Zoe Shaw has

such a story of how she became a psychotherapist in the field of shame. And what she brings to this

episode is unlike any other episode we've had at herself podcast.

We also go into how shame affects us, how it affects our partnerships, where change comes

into the mix when you want to change yourself or you want to change a partner.
