Do you want more?

I used to fear my power. I thought that if I let myself get too proud or too loud, others would roll their eyes at me and judge me for thinking I’m full of myself. Unconsciously, I made myself smaller, quieter, and more AGREEABLE because I feared that if I let myself get too big I’d lose the interpersonal connections that I craved.

While studying the inner-Shadow, I learned two very important distinctions that’s liberated me from that limiting mindset:

1) Being open, vocal, and proud about my innate talents and skills has absolutely no bearing on interpersonal connection. In fact, I've become more magnetic to others and I gravitate to those who are doing the same.

2) Most people don't put that much thought into what I am doing and if they are triggered by me enough to judge me it's because they're struggling with their own repressed Golden Shadows and I have a lot of compassion for how painful that is because I've been there.

Exploring and integrating my Shadows made it possible for me to do my job, which requires a lot of exposure. I love, love, love what I do and am confident that if I did not take the time to process and reclaim my Shadows, I’d still be hiding somewhere, dissatisfied and wishing for more.

My Shadows held me back from doing my dream job, but for you it might be hiding from relationships, stalling creative projects, or building the community you desire. When we shrink ourselves, we shrink our experiences.
