Summary
You are not alone if you have shamed your kid this week. Why hide all of the truth? Let’s get it out in the open and talked freely about being shamed, because their is a good chance it happened to you. This week Cathy and Todd continue to talk about Brene Brown’s shame and vulnerability research.
They discuss 6 ways to NOT respond when someone shares something deep or shameful, why some friends are easier to share with, and why sharing your shame with someone you trust is the first step toward inner peace. Plus if that isn’t enough, they also share their own experiences with being shamed and sharing. Just because they host an amazing parenting show doesn’t mean they haven’t shared in your experiences.
Plus, wait for it…Todd talks about credit card roulette and happy-honking drivers.

| 0:48.6 | This probably, well, actually, I think this is a great podcast for you, but we're not, we're not |

| 0:58.0 | We're in the world of teaching you how to be more self-aware and how to be more compassionate for yourself and therefore teaching your kids to do the same. |
| 1:04.8 | It translates to parenting, but it's not a how-to guide on parenting. |
| 1:08.7 | And I don't believe that how-to guides are really effective because |
| 1:12.3 | there's too many, there's too many variables. Conflictual advice out there? Different personalities, |
| 1:19.8 | different experiences, different situations, different emotional elements. And yeah, I mean, |
| 1:24.3 | if you're looking for the expert advice, it's going to be different all across the board. |
