Kelly Jackson delves into the deeper meanings of Halloween, exploring how the shadows, costumes, and masks we associate with this holiday can reveal hidden aspects of ourselves. Through personal anecdotes and insights on self-growth, Kelly shares her journey of using Botox as a metaphorical mask and how she learned to remove it to embrace her true self. The episode tackles the idea that facing our fears and shadows can lead to personal empowerment and growth. With practical advice on how to unmask yourself and embrace your shadows with compassion, Kelly invites listeners to transform their pain into possibilities and live more authentically. Tune in for an enlightening discussion that aims to help you reclaim your power and step into your true self.

From the Episode:

  • "What if the monsters that we run from are actually teachers in disguise?"
  • "... avoiding shadows keeps you stuck and facing them sets you free."
  • " Today I'm going to show you how what you're most afraid to face could be the exact thing that makes you magnetic, whole and powerful."
  • "  And the one that you give your energy and attention to is the one that grows and multiplies."
  •  "  When you learn to meet your shadows with love instead of fear, you stop living on autopilot and you start living in alignment."
  • "  Your shadows, those dark parts of yourself, those shadow aspects of yourself are asking you to become consciously aware that they are a part of you without denying them, without repressing them, without disowning them..."
  • " Spoiler alert, it didn't ruin me and it wasn't the worst thing that happened to me either..."
  • "  I'm hoping with sharing these stories and providing some insight, that you will have the courage to get that flashlight and shine the light of your consciousness on some of your shadows as well."
  • "   That is exactly what shadow work is. Our shadows feel terrifying because we're meeting them in the dark. But when you shine the light of awareness, you see that they're not here to destroy you. They're just parts of you that are playing roles."
  • "  We have all seen people who are haunted by their past because they won't face it. That doesn't have to be your story though."

Betrayal Season 5

Betrayal Season 5

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
