98. The Ugly Parts of Growth No One Talks About
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Sometimes growth feels beautiful… and sometimes it feels like your shadow self is trying to hijack the wheel.
This week, I got humbled.. deeply ... and I bring you into the actual behind-the-scenes of what healing looks like when old wounds resurface out of nowhere.
In this episode, I shares:
- How Mercury retrograde unearthed wounds she thought were long gone
- The real reason ego flare-ups happen when you start becoming more visible
- Why being “of service” can trigger trauma from childhood, addiction, and past relationships
- The shadow traits that develop when you grow up invisible or unseen
- How identity wounds create personas (attention-seeking, performance, power hunger)
- What shame does to your nervous system
- How to face the parts of yourself you’re scared to look at
- Why validation hits old childhood buttons
- How to reconnect to authentic service instead of people-pleasing
- Why healing in layers is normal, not failure
