The Shame We Carry: How Confession and Authenticity Set Us Free

  • Summary

  • Shame is a silent weight many of us carry — a belief that we are somehow flawed, broken, or unworthy of love. In this powerful and compassionate episode of Project I Am, Dr. David J. Schlosz unpacks the profound impact of shame on our mental and emotional well-being and offers a path toward healing through the courageous practices of confession and authenticity.

    Drawing on research from shame experts like Brené Brown and June Tangney, personal therapy stories, and real-life media examples including Jonah Hill’s Stutz and Demi Lovato’s journey of truth-telling, this episode explores how sharing our stories in safe spaces can transform our lives. David highlights why empathy is the antidote to shame, what makes a space truly “safe,” and how living authentically — even when it’s costly — leads to freedom and wholeness.

    This episode is both a heart-opening invitation and a practical guide for anyone longing to break free from the grip of shame and step into a more authentic life.

    Whether you're a therapist, a seeker, or someone on a healing journey, this episode will meet you with truth, grace, and hope.
