Scenario

When shame about your life circumstances prevents reconnection

I want to reconnect with old friends but I am embarrassed about how my life turned out and I keep putting off reaching out until I get my act together.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Shame tells us we must earn love through achievement, but friendship's gift is acceptance of who we are right now.
