Overcoming a Shame-Based Identity: Who You Are vs. What Happened to You (Ep. 013)

After trauma, it’s easy for shame to take root and slowly shape the way we see ourselves. What starts as something that happened to us can begin to feel like something that defines us. In Episode 013 of A Door of Hope, Kay and Kerry talk about how to recognize a shame-based identity and the ways it can quietly influence our thoughts, beliefs, and sense of worth. They explore what it looks like to walk through the healing process with Jesus, gently untangling the lies that shame has built over time and rediscovering the identity God gave us long before trauma ever entered the picture. This episode is about learning to separate who you are from what happened to you, and taking steps toward seeing yourself through a lens of truth, not shame.

About the Hosts: Kay Tolman and Kerry Hansher are both survivors of Satanic Ritual Abuse (SRA). Beginning in childhood, the ritualistic trauma they endured led to a long and difficult journey toward healing, marked by struggles with anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, and dissociative identity disorder (DID). Through many years of walking in healing and restoration with the Lord, Kay and Kerry have found freedom—and now dedicate their lives to helping other survivors who have been ignored, shamed, or ridiculed. Using the freedom God has given them, they offer hope, understanding, and practical support to those navigating this deeply complex and often misunderstood trauma.
