Season 3: Series 1: Episode 3- Not Without Shadows: The Journey of Feeling Fully May 10, 2026  This series explores the idea that we embark on a journey to understand that life is not without shadows. Thus, we explore the journey of feeling fully.   We often try to push away emotions we dislike, such as anger, grief, shame, and guilt, thinking they are bad or make us feel bad, while only embracing those that feel good. But what if every emotion has value, even the uncomfortable ones? What if feeling, naming, and acknowledging all of them is the path to growth and self-understanding? Today, in Not Without Shadows: Feeling, Naming, and Becoming, we explore how embracing our full emotional spectrum, cultivating curiosity, refraining from judgment, and avoiding avoidance can transform the way we live, relate, and become our most authentic selves.
