In this short documentary, we delve into an interview of professionals at Duke, who have encountered moments in their lives that spark anxiety, depression, anger, and fear but are urged to press on. The Shame Conversation focuses on the raw truths behind mental wellness and how we can support positive conversations around the subject for some of the nation’s most essential workers in order to shift the culture.
