In the age of reality-TV-show-based interventions that attempt to heal everything from obesity and hoarding to infidelity and addiction, it is not difficult to find video footage of people being shamed into changing their behavior.

Tune in for an in-deph discussion of what this fresh perspective means in terms of gaining understanding of ourselves and feeling better.
