podcast September 24, 2025


Background
share close

In this Mid-Week Tease, Adelle dives into the hidden ways internalized shame limits women and how it often makes us judge each other too. Shame is sneaky; it feels personal, but really it’s society’s voice living inside of us. Adelle shares how shame silences us, shrinks us, disconnects us from others, and even makes us police other women. And drawing from Brené Brown’s research, Adelle unpacks what shame resilience looks like and how we can start reclaiming our power with awareness, compassion, and connection.

Reflection prompts in this episode:

  • What rules do you live by that you never actually chose?
  • Where do you notice shame making you smaller?
  • When do you catch yourself judging other women and what does it reveal about your own shame?
  • What’s one area of your life where you want to practice shame resilience?

Let’s talk about it.
