This week, marriage and family therapist Nicole Zasowski joins us to talk about the fear of disappointment and loss and why shame is as self-absorbed as pride. I think a common experience for many of us is the fear of enjoying a moment of life too much because history tells us that loss or pain must be on the way. What’s behind that? That’s exactly where we’re headed with Nicole.
