Before Life Gives You Everything_ This Always Happens - Carl Jung

DESCRIPTION:Before life gives you everything, it takes something away. Carl Jung called it the "defeat of the ego"—the moment when everything you thought you knew about yourself collapses. It feels like failure. It feels like loss. It feels like the end. But it's not. It's the threshold. Jung wrote that "the birth of the Self is always a defeat for the ego." The old version of you—the one built on approval, control, and fear—must die before the real one can emerge. This episode explores the dark night of the soul, the shadow self, and why the richest chapter of your life always begins with a loss you didn't ask for. Listen if you're ready.
