Shedding Shame: Healing Through Vulnerability and Sacred Truth
If there’s one thing I’ve seen time and time again in my work with humans - from ceremony to sacred circle to private guidance - it’s this: shame is the root of the block.
It’s the silent weight we carry.
The inner voice that whispers, “You’re not enough.”
The invisible wall between who we are and who we’re becoming.
It doesn’t yell like anger or cry like grief. Shame hides. It isolates. And most dangerously - it convinces us we must keep quiet.
But here’s the truth I’ve learned over and over: we don’t heal in hiding.
Growth demands vulnerability.
Not the polished kind. Not the curated stories.
But the raw, tender truth that says, “Here I am, scared and sacred.”
When we begin to speak without filtering through the fear of judgment, blame, or criticism, something powerful happens: shame begins to loosen its grip.
We realize we’re not alone in our struggle.
We realize we don’t have to be perfect to be worthy.
We realize that honesty—brave, trembling honesty—is the medicine we need to grow.
The antidote to shame isn’t more pretending. It’s truth-telling.
It’s finding spaces where you can say the thing you’ve been holding in your chest for years… and still be held.
Still be loved.
Still be seen as whole.
At Soul Vision, we know that growth doesn’t come from bypassing pain or masking our truth - it comes from returning home to it. It comes from walking through the fire of our stories, not around them.
So I invite you today to check in with yourself:
What truth have you been afraid to say out loud?
What story are you still carrying shame around?
What would it feel like to speak, not to be fixed or judged, but to be witnessed?
This is the sacred work.
This is the path to freedom.
And you don’t have to walk it alone.
With love and truth,
Jules
