Welcome to Shrink for the Shy Guy.

This is the show for you if you are sick and tired of being held back by fear, self-doubt,

social anxiety, shyness, anything that's stopping you from you being you.

I'm going to share the most powerful tools and resources that I've been discovering over the last 15 years on my

journey to eradicate social anxiety and instill confidence, first in myself and then in every

single person that I meet on my journey. You're going to learn these tools and how to apply them

in your life now so that you can become the most free, powerful, bold, authentic version of you.

Hey, welcome to today's episode of the show. Today we're going to be talking about something

that may be really impacting you in your life

in a negative way, and you might not even be very aware of it.

And it's an invisible force that tends to influence certainly the way you feel,

but also the way that you think and the way that you perceive yourself and the world around you,

what's possible for you, And many people are so used to this experience. It's so common for them

and might only be the only thing they really know that it becomes invisible. And that's part of why

it can be so detrimental and why it's so valuable for you to be here today

to learn about what it is and even more importantly than just knowing what it is and having a name

for it how to shift it how to change it because that's what this show is all about is liberation

more freedom for you to be you in the world so what is that force well there's different labels for it, but one that seems pretty accurate.

It's called toxic shame.

Toxic shame.

Now, you might hear those two words and say, wow, this sounds like an episode that I'll

go listen to later and try to get away from it.
