Ain’t That a Shame? – Perfectionism, Judgment, and Mental Health

from I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND! · host AJ and Ally

This week, we’re stepping into the heavy stuff—shame. We open up about the ways shame has shaped our lives, especially in the workplace and in the expectations we place on ourselves (hello, perfectionism).Then, we dig deeper into how shame shows up in church spaces—through the fear of judgment, the weight of perceived moral failure, and the quiet belief that we’re somehow unworthy of grace.This episode includes one of our most vulnerable conversations yet, as AJ and Ally share how shame crept its way into their careers. And Ally shares her personal journey with mental health and how shame has tangled itself in that story.If you’ve ever wrestled with feeling like you’re not enough—you’re not alone.
