In this episode of 'Sex, God, & Chaos', hosts Roane Hunter, Eva Hunter, and Ben Derrick take you on a journey through their personal experiences with these powerful feelings. From childhood anxieties to adult insecurities, they reveal how fear often hides beneath shame, influencing our actions and the masks we wear to fit in.
The trio dives into societal pressures, especially in conservative environments, where the need to present perfection is not just accepted but rewarded. Roane, Eva, and Ben share candid stories about how fear and shame have held them back from being truly known, and the steps they've taken to confront these emotions head-on.

They explore how cultural strategies for acceptance can sometimes lead to a vicious cycle of fear and shame. With humour and honesty, the hosts encourage you to reflect on your own experiences with fear and shame. They emphasise the value of acceptance and the courage it takes to be vulnerable.
