As the saying goes, “your pain has its own intelligence,” and this intelligence is the shadow. It is created when we reject, deny, or disown parts of ourselves, our pasts, or our true actions. And the truth is, the more you try and reject or avoid these parts of yourself, the more they show up and throw you off course, sabotage your best efforts to change and hold your power hostage.
The first step to reclaiming your power is to face these dark and uncomfortable parts of yourself that make you the most human. Your pathway to feeling whole and complete can only be unlocked through understanding, integrating and learning how to work with your shadow.
