Zimmerman Podcast Episode 125: REMOVING SHAME AND SHEDDING LIMITING BELIEFS: Silencing the Voice of Shame That’s Running Your Life
Welcome to Zimmerman Podcast Episode 125: REMOVING SHAME AND SHEDDING LIMITING BELIEFS: Silencing the Voice of Shame That’s Running Your Life
I remember when I turned thirty-nine and bought my first crop top. It was an act of beautiful rebellion. Not against age, nope! I’ve never had a problem with growing older, and no part of me wanted to dress like a teen in some sort of mid-life crisis.
I was rebelling against shame. Against all the messages I’d heard growing up that sunk in deep and made me feel like revealing any part of myself– both physically and emotionally– was something to be ashamed of.
Like most women throughout history, but even specifically those growing up like I did, in the American south in the last half a century, showing any amount of skin was met with disapproving glares, gossipy whispers, and choruses of “bless her heart.”
Can you relate? Find out in today’s podcast.
