Kay Lawrence will be speaking on 'The Pain of Shame - the Imposter Complex'.

Shame is an insidious and powerful feeling that distorts our sense of self and leaves us believing we are defective. Kay will look at healthy shame vs toxic shame, the manifestations of shame and how to change the script.
