How to Chase a Shadow

Do certain behaviors in others make you instantly see red? In today’s episode we dive into the fascinating world of button-pushing and shadows—those behaviors that trigger us most and what they reveal about ourselves. This episode unpacks why some things bother us so deeply, how to turn our frustrations into opportunities for growth, and what it means to approach life and those around us with "fresh eyes." Spoiler: it’s as much about seeing the light as owning the shadows.
