Summary

We’re all storytellers. Unlike any other living creature—unless you might find yourself in a C.S. Lewis novel—humans are the only animals that tell stories in the way we do. It is in those stories that our shame takes up residence, with all of the mechanics we have learned about so far, and begins to tell a story that leads to our destruction. Hence, it’s not enough to know about the mechanics of how shame works. We need to know where in our stories it first inserted itself. Listen in as we inquire in which story does each of us believe we are living? The answers we discover may surprise you—and will also begin to pave the way toward freedom from the straitjacket in which shame has bound us.
