This podcast is a case study about a gay man who is trying to prove his self-worth through perfectionism, numbing, sex, drugs, and over functioning. He does not embrace his authenticity until a face down moment of clarity at a sex club. He recovers by gaining insight about his shame narratives that are feeding his anxiety and depression. He learns to lean into his vulnerability and authenticity through self-compassion and shame resilience by practicing Daring Way™ modalities and psychotherapy.
