𝑰 am 𝑺o 𝑨shamed

Brene Brown said,

β€œFor me, vulnerability led to anxiety, which led to shame, which led to disconnection, which led to Bud Light.”

My shame path usually leads to something with salt and carbs, but I think you get the idea.

Shame = disconnection. This is so good to know.

Disconnection = overeating. This is also good to know.

Now, what do I do about that? Will knowing this mean that I won’t eat out of shame anymore? I don’t think so.

What will knowing this do? Allow me to be curious about how I feel, why I feel that way, and what I want to do about it.

I have all the power.
