Messages For Men - Shame

Welcome back to Messages for Men, a podcast dedicated to tackling the real struggles men face. In this episode, Brad explores shame—one of the most powerful and destructive emotions men wrestle with.

Building on our last episode about guilt, today we dive into the difference between guilt and shame, how shame shapes our identity, and the ways it holds men back from living a fulfilled life.

🔹 What is shame, and how does it differ from guilt?
🔹 The impact of shame on relationships, work, and self-worth.
🔹 The role of childhood trauma and societal messaging in shaping male shame.
🔹 How men numb their shame—alcohol, addiction, isolation, and more.
🔹 The path to overcoming shame: self-compassion, forgiveness, and community.

Too many men suffer in silence, weighed down by past failures, cultural labels, and personal insecurities. But shame doesn’t have to define you. This episode is a call to change the narrative, rewire our thinking, and step into a healthier, stronger masculinity.
