Shadow work means confronting the hidden parts of yourself you don't acknowledge. Without it, you operate unconsciously, on autopilot. The speaker argues it's the only real path to authenticity and control over your own life.
And you're totally unconscious, totally unconscious. You don't have control over yourself in that moment. And that's why the shadow work is so important, to gain control, to gain self-awareness. Literally, and that's what I wanted to say earlier, is that— oh, I think I did say that I really believe that shadow work is the gateway to authenticity. Yes. Because it is the gateway to... Consciousness.
