Use Shame Work for one outcome: understand shame vs. guilt. Pick one real situation instead of trying to improve everything at once.
Capture a starting point
Write what is happening now, what you want to be different, and one constraint you need to respect. Keep the notes factual and short so you can compare before and after.
Run one small practice
Spend 10 minutes with Shame Work. Complete the smallest useful version, then choose one action you can take today without waiting for perfect certainty or motivation.
Review what changed
After the action, ask whether it helped you identify shame-based beliefs. Keep what worked, change what did not, and choose when you will check again.
