Shame
First I want to say how moved I was by your book. I’m a trauma/EMDR therapist so I listened to this episode with my professional ear. I want to offer you another frame re: Sam P & “those shows”. At 13 you were an exceptionally talented actress & comedienne. To your audience, your character and those shows are a poignant memory from *their* (sometimes difficult, lonely or traumatic) childhoods. When they call you Sam or shout a joke from the show they are *honoring* you & your talent. They’re saying “you and the work you did so many years ago were and are meaningful to me!” I definitely understand that for you those years were traumatic, but I wonder if your shame has nothing to do with sweet funny Sam, and everything to do with sweet, suffering, abused young Jennette. So heal her, and I hope you can actually get to a place of tenderness & gratitude, not just tolerance, for the funny silly shows you made famous with your talent & the folks who still remember them fondly.
