As we enter the new year, many of us are looking ahead to the future. But as journalism professor and author Susan Shapiro sees it, it might be more constructive for us to look back at the past– and particularly at our biggest mistakes and humiliations.
Why dredge up the past? Why share stories of ourselves at our worst?
Shapiro believes sharing the ugliest stories from our lives can transform those moments into something truly beautiful.
