Description: Today's episode is all about our shadow self, or the dark parts of ourselves that we'd rather not acknowledge or shine a light on. Unfortunately, burying those qualities in the sand or turning away from our lesser liked qualities only makes them grow stronger and louder. So let's take a walk on the dark side and embrace the less positive aspects of our selves. Because the real question isn't whether you have a dark side, it's whether you acknowledge your dark side. We’d love to hear from you! Do you view self-care as an act of self-love and compassion? If so, what does that look like in your life? If not, how would you define the concepts of self-care and self-love?   The Episode:   Topics Discussed:
  • Aspects of our selves that we don't like — AKA our shadow selves
  • The downward spiral of being late
  • Staying present to the shadow aspects of ourselves
  • Addictive personalities and behaviors
  • Red flags and warning signs of when things are out of control
  • Impulsivity, regrets, and drama-filled living
  • Forgiveness and empathy for the parts of yourself that you don't love
  • The gifts of discomfort and pain when creating change
  • Our connection to "things"
  • Clearly defined values and how that sets the tone
  • Using the shadow aspects as an indication that something is off
  • Curiosity versus judgment and reactivity
