  • Résumé

  • Life can feel like the most insane and exciting adventure, while other days it can feel like a living hell of which we cannot escape. Rarely do we feel like we can divulge what we truly think and feel and sometimes we don’t even know ourselves. In this podcast, I hope to dive into the deepest parts of our hearts and minds to find the keys to freedom together. I hope, if I do anything at all, I remind you that there is immeasurable beauty in both the light and shadow. *** follow @light._and_.shadow on instagram for essential graphics and related posts ***

    17. Dark Intermissions: Instagram v. Reality & Relearning Old Lessons
    Sep 20 2024

    I'm back! I know it's been 3 months since I've published my last episode and while I wanted to jump straight back into the little learnings for "uncovering the truth," I wanted to share some things I'm struggling with in my own life. The reason I include some of these episodes with more practical educational videos and to show how I personally work through my own difficult feelings with the things I've previously learning. While this episode is mostly unstructured and a bit of a mishmash of things I've been feeling lately, it's important to note that all throughout the healing journey, we'll all have breakthroughs and set backs and all are necessary for the learning process. In this particular episode, I share about my frustration with learning the same lessons over and over again, while also reiterating that Instagram is not reality - that there is so much that goes on behind a picture or video, and I'm no different. I hear all the time from my public instagram that people wish they had my life, wish they had as much money as me, and in reality, they don't really know what they're asking for. If you're looking for someone who shares some feelings of insignificance and struggling with self worth, this is the episode for you. Key themes include relationships issues and how they potentially impact self-esteem and self-worth.

    16. Emotions [part 2]: what it means to “feel your feelings”
    May 23 2024
    This episode is our longest yet, but jam packed with vital information all about the role of emotions and how actively feeling them will change your entire life. It is the part 2 continuation of emotions part 1, and finalizes the “little learnings” for the emotion/body sensation phase needed to “interrupt the cycle” is step three of the healing process. I begin the episode with a short recap of part 1, and continue on to speak about the preliminary steps before we’re able to fully feel our emotions. Next, I move into the key steps of actually feeling your feelings and what it specifically entails. I also provide real examples to illustrate how this might look like in your real life. Key concepts include mindfulness, emotional granularity, resistance, and agitation/limbic friction. I then move into how our emotional regulation plays a role in communicating and expressing our emotions to others, while also understanding the communication and expression of emotions from others on a more empathetic level. I talk about how these emotional fields collide and the best way to blend the two together. I also open the real possibility of rejection/abandonment in emotional relating and how to overcome to not just improve your own emotional health and wellbeing, but to also strengthen your emotional bonds with others. I also go over coping mechanisms specially related to emotions, as thinking and emotions are two separate roads, and explain where these two roads merge and where they diverge. I stress the importance of creating space between thoughts, feelings, emotional body sensations, and action in order to come to the greatest and most effective solutions to our emotional problems. It’s a long one, but there’s no time wasted when you’re learning to master the most important skills of your life - emotional regulation and healthy relating to other people. The benefits that come from this learning are far reaching and exponential!

  • 15. Emotions [part 1]: changing the narrative

    15. Emotions [part 1]: changing the narrative
    May 23 2024
    We are back with another “little learnings” episode, now covering the emotional piece. I know this is a long episode, but it’s probably my most important episode to date - and the most researched! I’ve working on this episode for 5 months, trying to flesh out all the details and nuances of emotion to help change your narrative and understanding of emotions as a whole. This episode starts off by de-mystifying emotions and the emotional experience by explaining the scientific and biological need for emotions to exist. By providing a clear definition and intricate understanding of emotions, I hope you change the way you relate to them as well. While the old narrative might be emotions are useless and to be avoided at all costs, we move into a deeper, wiser understanding of what emotions really mean for our lives and how to begin listening to what they’re trying to tell us. I touch on the impact of emotional trauma and how it affects our ability to feel, express, and communicate our emotions, as well as detail the grave problems that occur when they are ignored. I venture into explaining in detail the 5 core emotions and give plenty of examples to help emotional concepts stick even in the most emotion phobic minds. I truly believe recovery begins and ends with experiencing, understanding, and relating to our emotions in a healthy way, and this episode serves as the overarching framework to do just that. I know it’s long, but it’s packed with information that I feel is the most vital part of our recovery process.
