Shame doesn’t whisper—it screams. It tells you that you're unworthy, unlovable, too broken to be healed. But shame is a lie, and it’s time we call it out.

In this raw and powerful episode of Hope for the Mind, Kristin opens up about a topic many avoid: shame—how it infects our identity, sabotages relationships, distorts faith, and even leads some to the edge of despair. With biblical insight and psychological depth, she explores how shame differs from guilt, why it thrives in silence, and how even churches—places meant for healing—can become breeding grounds for shame if we’re not careful.

From Adam and Eve to the woman at the well, Scripture shows us a God who doesn't run from the ashamed but runs toward them. Shame may try to rewrite your story, but grace has the final word.
