Ever wondered what it takes to truly embrace self-love? In this engaging episode of 'Happiness Is An Inside Job', Lynda Emmett guides us through the lesser-known territory of self-love—our shadow selves. It's not all rainbows and butterflies, folks! Sometimes, it's about facing those parts of ourselves we've tucked away, like that embarrassing middle school haircut. Lynda explains how acknowledging these hidden aspects can be a radical act of self-love.
By integrating these shadow parts, we can break free from self-sabotage and live more authentically. She shares personal anecdotes, like her own road rage epiphany, to illustrate how understanding our triggers can lead to profound personal growth. Through a mix of humour and honesty, Lynda encourages listeners to have a heart-to-heart with their inner child and ask those tough questions: What do you need? Why are you feeling this way?
This episode is a gentle reminder that true self-love means accepting every part of ourselves, even the ones we don't want to admit exist. So, why not take a moment to shine a light on your shadows and see what they have to teach you?
