These two TED talks are both profound and encouraging. They speak to the topic of being vulnerable and shame. I recommend them knowing that the speaker speakes NOT from a Christian perspective but non the less her study is extrmemely helpful. As I interact with fellow life travellers and friends, I have come to see these two as profoundly influencial. Even and especially for us who profess Christ. Shame is such an interesting topic . There is right and wrong shame. I think she is talking about the wrong shame we expereience which distracts us fromt eh right shame we ought to hold.
