O TYM ODCINKU
You keep attracting the wrong relationships and can't figure out why. It's not bad luck, it's a readiness problem, and today's guest shows you exactly how to spot it in yourself.
I sat down with Junie Moon, bestselling author of Loving the Whole Package: Shed the Shame and Live Life Out Loud and host of the Midlife Love Out Loud podcast, to talk about the shadow work that took her from a 20-year marriage and 200 pounds to hosting a body-painted film at an international film festival. Junie broke down what shadow work actually is, why self sabotage hides behind a "successful life," and the real difference between dating someone's potential and dating who they actually are.
If you've ever caught yourself saying "I wish he would" instead of asking for what you need, or you're the friend who's "fine" but not fulfilled, this one's for you.
TOPICS DISCUSSED:
- The body-painted short film that led to her bestselling book
- What shadow work really means (Carl Jung's concept, explained simply)
- Two tools for practicing self love in action, beyond affirmations
- Why women self sabotage without realizing it
- Dating potential vs. accepting someone as they are
- The "readiness problem" behind most failed relationships
- Free quiz: discover your love avatar and relationship readiness score
BEST MOMENTS:
"Fine is not fulfilled."
"Don't jump in too quickly, but don't jump out too fast."
"Words and affirmations can only take you so far."
"You can't think your way out of a habit."
"Shadow work helps you become a more integrated human being and mine the gold."
"Do not lower your standards."
