Your shadow is the unconscious survival pattern you learned as a kid that still runs your life. Recognizing what you don't know you don't know is the first step to breaking free from those old protective scripts and taking back control.
What you don't know that you don't know is the shadow. And unfortunately, it's running your life. It's really important to have— like, your subconscious mind is a very, very valuable part. But the thing is, is that subconscious mind is always trying to keep you safe. And the thing is, is that what keeps you safe, what kept you safe when you were a child, is usually what keeps you trapped when you're an adult. Mm. So it's like the shadow is— it usually comes from a survival mechanism from a child, from being a child, because obviously as a child you are totally dependent on your parents, right? And so to survive, you— they have to love you and care for you, right? Otherwise you, you die. You literally die.
