If you’re curious as to whether you have any stored emotions or trauma that might be causing your illness, preventing you from achieving your goals or even just showing up as the best, authentic version of yourself, I invite you to take my free Stored Emotions and Trauma Quiz

What if the thing you can’t stand in someone else is really just the part of yourself you’ve been avoiding?



This episode is all about shadow work and what it actually asks of us — to face the unconscious, repressed parts we hide. There are 5 practical ways to do your shadow work, and you’re going to learn all of them in this episode. A turning point with my mom shows how judgment becomes a mirror, and how seeing those patterns in me changed our relationship. During my parents’ visit, real conversations helped me see both of them as human beings for the first time. 

You’ll Learn:

• What shadow work really is
• 5 practical ways to do shadow work
• The reason the greatest healing happens when you face your shadows instead of avoiding them
• What happens when judgment of others reveals the hidden parts you’ve rejected in yourself
• The damage of staying in a victim mindset and blaming others for your pain
• Why journaling, therapy, mirror work, and meditation are practical entry points into shadow work
• How acknowledging and integrating shame can open the door to deeper self-acceptance
