In this episode of Triggered and True, Laura Duncan and Brian Freise explore shame, a universal barrier to emotional and spiritual health. Using Genesis 3, they trace shame’s origins to Adam and Eve’s knowledge of good and evil, which led to hiding from God and self. Shame, a "virus" in our operating system, fuels anxiety, depression, and identity confusion by tying what we do to who we are. Laura explains why "doing better" feeds shame and offers compassion as the antidote. Learn to identify shame through triggers like "I should," blame, or feeling inadequate. Reflect on your own triggers as we prepare for part two, where Brian shares his journey healing shame with the Compassion Method.
