{BONUS} Helping Kids with Toxic Shame

A short note from Robyn...
This episode is a recording of a social media post and a post I made in The Club a while back.
Loving someone who is held captive by toxic shame is so so hard. I hope this short episode gives you a little understanding of toxic shame and self-hatred, as well as a few practical ideas about how to be with a child who is stuck in a pit of toxic shame.
The Club On-Demand Video Library houses a three-part video training on the neurobiology of toxic shame.
