Gay Men Going Deeper Guilt, Shame, and Religion
Guilt and shame are two of the most challenging emotions we encounter. For those who grew up with a religious or spiritual belief system, guilt and shame can have a uniquely traumatic impact on your sense of self and in your relationships.
In this episode, host Michael DiIorio speaks with inter-faith community leader, Jeremy Russo, who has used his experience with spiritual abuse to become a leader in the queer community helping others overcoming their own spiritual and religious trauma.
In this episode we cover:
- The similarities and differences between guilt and shame
- What is spiritual abuse and religious trauma
- The unique impact this has on queer people
- Resources and tips to help along your healing journey
Regardless of your spiritual beliefs, this episode will help you better understand and navigate your way through guilt and shame.
