Break Free from Shame with Ben Larke

What if the voice in your head that says "you're not good enough" isn't actually true? What if the secret behaviours you've carried for decades aren't defining you, but rather haunting you? Clinical psychologist Ben Larke helps men untangle the difference between guilt about what we've done and shame about who we are.In this raw and remarkably accessible conversation, we explore:The critical distinction between shame and guilt—and why one is far more dangerousHow childhood experiences code our default responses decades laterWhy men at midlife suddenly find themselves caught up by unresolved painThe relationship between shame, addiction and compulsive behaviourBen's own midlife reinvention from UN humanitarian work to clinical psychologyWhy sharing secrets with another human being is often the first step toward freedomThe powerful metaphor of "parts" in the driver's seat—and how to recognise which part is steering your lifeWhat your 75-year-old self might want to tell you right nowThis isn't therapy—it's permission to be human.
