From Shame to Compassion:

A Storytelling Approach to Shame Resilience

Time: 12:45 PM

Session Type: Workshop

Location: Alfred Kinsey Room

Grounded in Indigenous ways of knowing that honour storytelling, relationship, and collective wisdom, this interactive 60-minute workshop explores how shame shapes our thoughts, emotions, relationships, and sense of self. Through storytelling, guided reflection, and experiential exercises, participants will identify their own shame narratives, deepen self-understanding, and cultivate self-compassion. Participants will leave with practical tools to build shame resilience, strengthen authentic connection, and reconnect with their inherent worth.
