Guilt and shame are common reactions to moments when we do something that doesn’t reflect who we want to be.

But while guilt is focused on a specific misdeed (and sparks the possibility for us to make amends next time), shame is a very different animal. Linked to the feeling of disgust, shame focuses on our character. Shame casts one as a human being who is bad, rather than a human being who did a bad thing.

Our internal narrative becomes incriminating, overwhelmingly negative, and unkind:
“I’m such a jerk. I’m so unkind. No one should be friends with me.”

Shame doesn’t leave any space for breathing, forgiveness, or growth. We need to wrap ourselves in a hug of self-compassion in these moments. We need to say to ourselves, “That wasn’t a kind thing to say, but it doesn’t mean you, as a person, are destined to be unkind. You can apologize. You can do better next time. I believe in you.”
