Shadow isn't just the "bad" parts of yourself. It's everything you've disowned—including your power, your wildness, your sexuality, and your joy.
In this episode, Casey explores Jungian shadow work and why most people misunderstand what shadow actually is. The work isn't to fix your shadow or transcend it—it's to integrate it and let it make you whole.
You'll discover:
- What shadow actually is (and why it includes your gold, not just your wounds)
- Why "love and light" spirituality bypasses the real work
- How spiritual bypassing keeps you stuck in surface-level healing
- The difference between shadow work and shadow integration
- How shadow changes as you move from maiden to mother
- Why your judgments of others reveal what you've disowned in yourself
Includes a shadow practice to help you recognize what you've been rejecting in yourself.
The goddesses live in the shadow—Persephone rules the underworld, Lilith refuses exile, Medusa's gaze forces you to face what you've hidden. This episode teaches you how to reclaim the parts of yourself that hold your greatest medicine.
