Letting Go of Shame: How It Impacts Mental Health

Letting Go of Shame: How It Impacts Mental Health

In this episode of Well Life Wednesday, host Iris, LCAS-A explores the powerful impact shame can have on our mental and emotional well-being.


Shame often hides beneath the surface—showing up as self-doubt, isolation, anxiety, or feeling like we’re not enough. Many people carry shame connected to past mistakes, trauma, addiction, relationships, or unmet expectations, and it can quietly influence how we see ourselves and interact with the world.


In this conversation, Iris breaks down:


  • The difference between shame and guilt
  • How shame affects mental health and self-worth
  • The connection between shame, anxiety, depression, and unhealthy coping behaviors
  • Practical ways to begin releasing shame and practicing self-compassion



If you’ve ever felt stuck in the weight of your past or struggled with feeling “not enough,” this episode offers encouragement and tools to help you move toward healing and self-acceptance.


Because letting go of shame is one of the first steps toward living a well life.
