WHAT WE OFFER

Shame Club offers several ways for you to get involved, address the shame you’ve been carrying around, and help others to do the same. Gatherings locally in-person or virtually online are an opportunity to find the courage to speak your truth and find that you are not alone. One-to-one coaching sessions are personal conversations with Bobby that allow you to go deeper over time and understand the underlying (and often illusory) causes of your shame experience. And speaking engagements and podcasts are an opportunity for Bobby to share his personal story of shame and the Shame Primer he developed to describe the essential nature of shame, its effects, and the many ways to heal it.

IN-PERSON GATHERINGS

Shame gets its power from silence. Speaking about our own struggles with feeling unworthy decimates shame’s power over us, especially in the company of others carrying their own burdens. Local, in-person Shame Club meetings are a confidential, judgment-free venue to Spill Your Guts in community with people from all walks of life. There is nothing more powerful than to learn you are not alone, not the only one suffering the destructive effects of carrying shame. There is nothing to do except show up, expose your shame to daylight, and allow others to do the same. Join Shame Club, and we’ll let you know about the next meeting in your community.

VIRTUAL GATHERINGS

Shame Club has you covered even if you’re unable to make it to a local meeting. Live virtual meetings provide the same confidential, judgment-free platform to Spill Your Guts and unburden yourself from the corrosion of unexamined, unspoken shame. Whether it was Confucius, Jon Kabat-Zinn, or even Buckaroo Bonzai who said it (or each of them), there is the undeniable truth that “wherever you go, there you are.” You take your shame wherever you may be, so join Shame Club and you’ll have access to all of our online gatherings.

PERSONAL CONVERSATIONS

Sometimes it feels like your shame experience is too private or gnarly for just showing up at a Shame Club community meeting. You want to go deeper over time, explore the ultimate source of your sense of unworthiness, and gain the tools to disarm its hold on you. One-on-one coaching sessions with Bobby are personal conversations that get to the heart (quite literally) of the matter. Bobby is a trained and experienced coach and mentor, with his own story of deep shame and healing. He gets it. Book an exploratory call and decide if a package of sessions feels right to you.

SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS
& PODCASTS

Fifteen years ago, Bobby endured his own Crash and Burn, a very dark time that unmoored him from the long-held sources of his own identity and sense of self-worth—achievement, career success, and perfection. After years of introspection, therapy, the support of a loving family and friends, and all manner of healing practices, Bobby got to see that his shame was not a one-shot deal; in fact, he traced his shame back over the years to various circumstances in his life. It always came down to basing his self-worth on external factors, not an internal sense of unshakeable worthiness. Over the years, Bobby has explored, written, and spoken about the nature of shame, its effects on one’s psyche, emotions, and life experiences, and the many modalities one can employ to heal. He calls this his Shame Primer. Book Bobby to speak to your group or at your event, or as a guest on your podcast.
