Some Questions I Ask:
- The shame, the stigma, the judgment that we have for ourselves around this - how do we move past that?
- When shame stops you from making that phone call... what do you do?
- What we're talking about here also is we're interrupting that habit of thinking... how do we make that change?
- If you're just so angry - honestly, they don't know what to do with themselves - what would be a first step?
