Mini Episode: Excavating the Basement of Our Soul

When I hit rock bottom in 2020, it felt like the basement of my soul was full. What do I mean by that?If our souls take the form of homes, and these homes have basements, then mine was filled with junk. I never opened my basement door, but occasionally, I’d peek through the door crack. Then I’d close it quickly, not wanting to deal with that right now. My basement was a dark, scary place to be.But as I hit rock bottom, and RT and I separated for a period, I couldn’t NOT ignore that door any longer. My basement was bursting at the seams, and I was confronted with this opportunity to begin my inner work in earnest. It was time to start digging myself out.My “opening the basement door” metaphor is one I use a lot in coaching. Every time I hear this metaphor, it resonates with me on so many levels, which is why I’m sharing it with you today.Resources & LinksDid this episode resonate with you?
