A companion piece to my memoir Unshaming, here I talk about shame one post at a time. I cover addiction, relationships, sex, recovery, arts and culture. Sometimes when I feel particularly weak, I post work-in-progress.
Author of five books including Unshaming (Mar 2026), a book about shame, recovery, relapse, failure and hope.
Exploring what it means to travel through time in a human body, at every phase of life.
