Introduction to Unmasking Shame™

Welcome to Unmasking Shame™ The Podcast

— a podcast about the hidden ways shame shapes our lives, relationships, identity, and sense of self. In this first episode, Austin and Heather introduce the heart behind Unmasking Shame and explore how shame often operates beneath the surface through avoidance, performance, control, disconnection, and the stories we tell ourselves to survive. This podcast is for anyone who feels stuck in patterns they can’t fully name and wants deeper, more honest conversations about what it means to heal, connect, and live authentically.
