One of the emotions I’ve struggled with the most is shame.
Not guilt. Not regret.
Shame.
The kind that lives in your spine.
The kind that makes you question whether you’re even worthy of being here.
The kind that doesn’t just hurt — it hijacks.
I spent five years in therapy trying to regulate shame.
I was given the full menu:
Breathe through it
Journal about it
Talk to it like it’s my inner child
Ask “Is this true?”
Try to be “curious, not critical”
None of it worked for me.
Because none of it touched the part of me that had been trained to disappear.
I didn’t need mindfulness — I needed momentum.
I needed something to grab when I was spiraling at 2am and every thought in my head was telling me I was the fucking problem.
So I built THE SHAME DETOX.
It’s a one-page clarity weapon you can use in real time.
To get your brain back.
To check the story.
To remember what’s yours — and what never was.
And I’m giving it away for free.
This is for the ones who were raised to believe love was earned.
Who were taught that boundaries are selfish.
Who got called “too much” when they finally said no.
This is for the ones who spiral in silence and still show up.
Who feel the shame, carry the shame, but still wonder if it's even theirs.
You’re not selfish. You’re not dramatic. You’re not broken.
You were just never meant to bleed for other people’s comfort.
You’re allowed to get loud.
You’re allowed to be clear.
You’re allowed to walk away from anything that makes you forget who you are.
Take the tool. Use it. Share it.
