Episode #168 - Shadow Work, Part 1

In this episode, we explore shadow work through the lens of the Enneagram — specifically what it means for Sixes. I talk about: what the “shadow” actually is why we disown certain qualities, emotions, and reactions how fear and anger often get split apart in Sixes projection, defensiveness, and unconscious patterns and how the Enneagram helps reveal the parts of ourselves we don’t want to see But this episode is not about “fixing” yourself. It’s about learning how to: notice your patterns bring unconscious reactions into awareness and hold yourself with enough tenderness to actually integrate what you find Because the things we push away don’t disappear. They just operate from the shadows. In this episode, we explore: The difference between conscious vs unconscious fear and anger in Sixes Why the qualities we judge in others often point back to ourselves How projection works in real time The danger of making shadow work another way to attack yourself Why tenderness and curiosity are essential to real transformation A question to take with you: What part of myself feels too dangerous to fully acknowledge?
