Quote of the Day

I didn't set out to become a wild-eyed shame evangelist or a Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, but after spending the past decade studying the corrosive effect that shame has on how we live, love, parent, work, and lead, I've found myself practically screaming from the top of my lungs, "Yes, shame is tough to talk about.  But the conversation isn't nearly as dangerous as what we're creating with our silence!  We all experience shame.  We're all afraid to talk about it.  And, the less we talk about it, the more we have it."

-- Brene Brown, Daring Greatly, p. 62
