ADVICE

Keep Focused on Their Story

  • Continuously redirect the dialogue back to the original story shared by the storyteller.
  • Gently invite them to return to moments in the story rather than diggingressions.
INSIGHT

Shame and Complicity Insight

  • Complicity in abuse means the storyteller knowingly engaged in their abuse.
  • Address shame rooted in complicity by blessing their natural desire for care and connection.
ADVICE

Amplify Shame to Heal

  • Instead of trying to remove shame, amplify it and move closer to it when the storyteller approaches it.
  • This approach can bring relief by authentically acknowledging difficult feelings.
