#27: Why You Can’t Escape Yourself

Mindfulness, Shadow Work, and Inner Healing

What Is Mindfulness, Really?

You can leave a job, a relationship, or even an old version of yourself, but you can’t escape you. In this episode, I explore how mindfulness, shadow work, and inner healing help you face what follows endings and move through the discomfort of becoming. In this episode, I explore the space between endings and becoming.

You’ll learn how mindfulness helps you meet yourself in the now, how shadow work reveals what you’ve been avoiding, and why inner healing often begins at the edge of discomfort.

Your Turn to Pause

If these words stirred something in you, take a breath before you move on.

Notice what you’ve been carrying, what patterns have followed you, and what your body is asking for right now.
