Episode notes

"We've covered all of the shame really well but not the identity components that we see evolve in the particularly the last 20 minutes of this film," he said. "Gandalf you know falls down that pit and fights the bell rug and wins and becomes a transcend version of himself Gandalf the white" He added, "When their hero's journey really starts when they leave behind these past identities."

The Fellowship of the Ring: Shame, Dissociation, and Trauma Bonds:
One does not simply discuss Lord of the Rings….so we teamed up with Southgate Productions and headed to Mordor to discuss the first Lord of the Rings film, Fellowship of the Rings! We discuss the impact of shame in the decision making and sense of identity amongst the fellowship. We also discuss the many ways that dissociation presents in the film as well as the concept of trauma bonds. So join us and hang on to your cloaks!
