Practically Awake
Welcome! I’m Jaclyn Proper, a Jungian Depth Coach, Educator, Explorer, Underworld Doula, Artist & human doing my best on Earth. This channel is about what it means to be an explorer of shadow and self. We dive into shadow work, eroticism, spiritual psychology, kink, neurodivergence, sexuality, travel, and authentic living through the lens of my personal journey and Jungian psychology. If you’re an unconventional soul, queer, kinky, neurospicy, or simply shadow-curious, you’ll find lighthearted yet no-nonsense conversations here to help you embrace your edges, and uncover the truth of who you are.
Practically Awake
How to Fulfill Your Potential Via Sexual Shadow Work
Today we’re diving deep into how exploring your sexuality can unlock your full potential — especially if you’re kinky, queer, neurodivergent, or just done pretending to be someone you're not.
So, what is the shadow? In Jungian psychology, the shadow contains all the repressed, denied, or taboo aspects of who we are — often shaped by trauma, conditioning, and fear of rejection. And surprise, surprise: our sexual desires, fantasies, and kinks are some of the most potent shadow content we carry.
If you’ve ever felt like your sexuality is “too much,” or you’ve masked your true self just to fit in, this episode is for you. I’ll walk you through: ✨ What the shadow is and how it forms
🔥 Why sexual shame and repression drain your life force
🧠 How kink can be a direct portal to healing and integration
💀 The real danger of repressing desires
🌈 How I went from pro domme to Jungian coach (and how it transformed my life)
