Dancing at the Shame Prom: Sharing the Stories That Kept Us Small
From the Introduction: “We invite you to join us at the Shame Prom—a place where we wear our ugly dresses, then shed them. Where we parade our shame in public, dance it around on our arm, and take awkward pictures with it. But afterward, we’re not going to roll around in the backseat making out with it.

Let’s get this party started.”
