Why do empaths so often fall in love with the broken pieces of others? In this soulful and compassionate episode, Michaela explores the layered way empaths love, not just the person in front of them, but their pain, their potential, and their shadows. She dives into the mystical nature of empathic auras, how they absorb and reflect emotional energy, and why this can draw them toward relationships that are more toxic than tender. Michaela also talks about specific ways each empath aura falls into the trap of loving in layers.

From Rahu and Ketu's shadow play to Purvabhadrapada's lightning-strike energy, we explore how cosmic ratios mirror human consciousness, the dance of Shiva and Shakti, and why eclipses carry both illumination and disruption.Along the way, we trace 108 through malas, Sanskrit sounds, nakshatras, baseballs, golf, Fatboy Slim, Lost, and fashion cut-outs. We also unpack the shadow side of the divine masculine in public spaces, the harmonics of divine feminine/masculine balance, and the unexpected story of Scarlett's literal “cosmic slap.”Tune in for myth, math, pop culture, and a flash of awakening that might just slap you into your own next evolution.Support the show

Send Us a Message!What if the stories you tell yourself are the very chains keeping you stuck? In this powerful episode, Christine and Isabel explore how past trauma shapes your identity, limits your potential, and disconnects you from your intuition — and how you can finally break free.From a Shamanic perspective, your life is created by the stories you carry. When those stories are rooted in wounds, they act like invisible “hooks,” pulling you back into old patterns of fear, self-sabotage, and limitation. Even your healing journey can become a trap if it reinforces the belief that you're still broken.In this episode, you'll discover:

It felt really lovely to step into a calm, quiet and still energy led by Pisces Blood Full Moon today. This soft and peaceful energy moves over like a wave of light. Opening to surface your shadows with trust into the light to transform and let go of what might have dimmed your presence, and purpose. To go beyond for an expanded self. A lovely moment of peace and transformation. In these channelled meditations, I connect with different energies to guide you beyond your old beliefs and history. To connect you to your inner wisdom, intuition, and life force through a relaxing journey. Please remember the energy is timeless and finds you where you are right now on your path.

Patricia Martin and Connie Zweig discuss the nature of shadow work. Before doing shadow work, we live an unexamined life – overeating, criticizing yourself or your partner, blaming someone, procrastinating – which leads to uncontrollable, self-sabotaging behaviors.

Her award-winning book, The Inner Work of Age: Shifting from Role to Soul, extends Shadow-work into midlife and beyond and explores aging as a spiritual practice.

Send Us a Message!We've all heard the mantras: “Raise your vibration.” “Think positive.” “Manifest your dream life.” But what if these well-meaning ideas are keeping you stuck?In this raw and transformative episode, Christine Renee and Shantel Ochoa take you beyond surface-level spirituality and deep into shadow work—where real healing, embodiment, and manifestation begin.Together, they unravel how the mainstream Law of Attraction movement often skips the necessary step of shadow integration—leading to spiritual bypassing, guilt, and frustration when "high vibes" fall short.

Have you ever felt like two parts of yourself are at battle with each other--one that knows something is bad for you and another that wants to do it anyway? Or maybe you have a loud inner critic, or an inner toddler that just wants to be seen and heard? We are all made up of different parts, but we can learn how to work with them vs against them. In this episode Jodi talks with therapist and author, Britt Frank, about her new book, Align Your Mind: Tame Your Inner Critic and Make Peace with Your Shadow Using the Power of Parts Work.

✨ Being multipassionate isn't a flaw. It's your magic. It's not your fault that you love so many things and you're good at them hehe. You're not scattered for wanting to weave together all the parts of you. You're not “unfocused” for dreaming in more than one direction. You're a mystic, a creative, an artist.

This eclipse season shadows are already fun because all the clarity you got around summer solstice is kinda...dissipating. All the excitement you felt around your decisions is now feeling more emotional. These delayed emotions might make you second guess your choices, or dysregulate your nervous system. But that's truly the test! You're being asked to backtrack and look at the wounds you overlooked and maybe acted out of integrity towards. We're there casualties in your moves? Think of this eclipse as a clearing. The Pisces energy says lets close chapter for real and virgo energy says step into this self-realized energy for real. The emotional and logically meet together.  ▲ Join Mystic Codes Immersion + Mastermind for Healers: https://alwaysplay.org/mystic _________________________________ Go Deeper: BREATHWORK ⭐ Study breathwork with me: https://www.flowbreathworktraining.com SHADOW WORK ⭐ https://www.alwaysplay.org/shadow-work PERFECTIONISM RESOURCES: ⭐ Perfectionism Quiz: https://www.alwaysplay.org/perfection HEALING ARTS ⭐ Discover your healer archetype: https://www.alwaysplay.org/healerarchetype ⭐ Healing Arts Courses: https://alwaysplay.org/courses __________

If you're in witchcraft spaces, over the last six years or so, you've likely heard someone talking about "shadow work" (or more obnoxiously telling someone "they need to do some shadow work"). And while some folks seem to consider it an essential element of witchcraft, for those of us who have been in the community a long time it's just a little bit puzzling. Likewise, a lot of the people pushing shadow work don't seem to know where it comes from to begin with. With that in mind, this month I'm going into the origins of shadow work, what it is, and maybe why some folks need to stop pushing it so hard.

Send us a textWhat version of yourself do you bring to work? To family gatherings? To your closest relationships? For many of us, these questions reveal uncomfortable truths about the different masks we wear throughout our lives.We don't put on these masks with malicious intent. They emerge from our deepest fears—fear of rejection, fear of inadequacy, fear that our authentic selves simply won't be enough. But what begins as self-protection gradually transforms into self-imprisonment. The exhaustion of juggling different personas, remembering which version of yourself you've shown to whom, and constantly monitoring your own behavior creates a crushing weight that few can sustain.The most revealing insight comes when we examine what bothers us in others. That colleague whose arrogance drives you crazy? That friend whose neediness feels suffocating? These triggers often reflect disowned aspects of ourselves—mirrors we'd rather not look into. Taking personal responsibility means asking the harder question: "What's my part in this dynamic?" The reflection may be uncomfortable, but it's where true growth begins.Freedom arrives when we commit to authenticity. One face. One truth. Just you. People intuitively sense incongruence between what you say and who you truly are, even if they can't articulate exactly what feels "off." Consistency builds trust far more effectively than perfection ever could. This week, try having just one honest conversation—with your spouse, your boss, or perhaps most importantly, with yourself. Take off just one mask and notice how much easier it becomes to breathe.

In this episode, Caitlin and Lurinda sit down with Lucy, a mum of three who's been in the personal development space for a decade. Lucy gets honest about why all that mindset work and manifestation coaching helped her intellectually but never actually healed anything, and how Shadow Alchemy became the first approach that actually worked. From judging women in the gym to realising she was projecting her own desire for confidence, Lucy shares the messy truth about spiritual bypassing and what it really takes to move from understanding your patterns to actually healing them. Plus, some excellent tangents about going clubbing in your 30s and why we stop having fun as adults.This episode is for you if:You've done years of mindset work but keep running the same bloody patternsYou judge other women's confidence and secretly wish you had it tooYou can connect all the dots about your childhood trauma but still feel triggered by the same stuffYou've lost parts of yourself to motherhood or "adulting" and want them backWhat we'll cover:Why Lucy used to judge women in the gym and what that really meantThe difference between intellectually understanding your patterns and actually healing themHow spiritual bypassing keeps you stuck in analysis without feelingWhat happened when Lucy finally let her alterego come out at the nightclubResources Mentioned:Shadow Alchemy Certification: shadowalchemycoaching.comShadow Alchemy Coaching Academy: @shadowalchemycoachingacademyConnect with Us:This conversation will probably make you think about all the parts of yourself you've shut down in the name of being "appropriate."

Lucy's story is proof that understanding yourself isn't the same as healing yourself - sometimes you need to get out of your head and into your body. And maybe, just maybe, you need to go dancing.

Episode Summary   In this powerful solo episode, Jason explores why self-compassion isn't just nice—it's literally the fastest path to transformation. He dismantles the toxic myth of "I should have known better" and reveals why judging your past choices keeps you stuck in old patterns. This episode offers both scientific backing and spiritual wisdom on how accepting that you've always done your best with what you had can free up massive energy for creating your future.   Key Takeaways The Myth of "Should Have Known Better" The spiritual poison: When you say "I should have known better," you're arguing with reality The truth: You made the best decision you could with the level of consciousness you had at that time Reality check: You can't upgrade your past with your current software   The Science of Self-Compassion Dr. Kristin Neff's research: Self-compassion leads to higher standards and better performance than self-criticism Neurological impact: Self-judgment activates threat detection and shuts down the prefrontal cortex (learning center) Self-compassion benefits: Activates the caregiving system, floods brain with oxytocin, releases neuroplasticity for transformation   The Spiritual Dimension Universal law: Consciousness evolves through experience, not judgment Buddhist concept: Beginner's mind—every moment is a fresh start Soul purpose: Your soul didn't incarnate to live a perfect life, but a full life Wisdom creation: Regret is just wisdom trying to be born   Generational Healing Breaking chains: When you practice self-compassion, you heal an entire lineage Ancestral patterns: Most patterns you judge yourself for were inherited Radical service: Self-compassion is the most radical act of service you can perform   Practical Application: The Three-Step Process   Step 1: Catch Yourself in Self-Judgment   Ask for help recognizing when you're "shoulding" on yourself   Step 2: Ask Three Self-Aware Questions What did I know then? What was my capacity then? What was I dealing with then?   Step 3: Use the Sacred Phrase   "I did what I knew how to do" Put this on your mirror Carry it in your pocket Say it every time you catch self-judgment   Bonus Practice: Get Curious Instead of Judgmental   Replace "Why did I do that?" with: "What was this choice trying to teach me?" "What was my soul learning through that experience?"   Powerful Quotes from This Episode "You can't know what you don't know until you know it." "Self-judgment is just ego trying to time travel." "You can't punish your past self into being better. You can only love your present self into growing." "The voice that heals you is never the same voice that hurts you." "You can't heal what you judge." "You can only choose victim or victor, but you can't choose both." "Your past doesn't define you, it refines you."   Scientific & Spiritual References Dr. Kristin Neff: Self-compassion research and psychological safety Buddhist wisdom: Beginner's mind concept New Testament teaching: "Judge not lest you be judged" Rudolf Steiner: "We're all angels in training"   24-Hour Challenge   Every time you catch yourself in self-judgment: Pause and breathe Say: "I did what I knew how to do. I am learning and growing. I'm exactly where I need to be."   Connect with HDL Podcast   If this episode gave you permission to stop being your own worst enemy, share it with someone who needs to hear it.

This is the Shadow Integration Activation, where you courageously clear the path for your optimal future self to fully inhabit your life. You will identify and release the limiting beliefs, emotional blocks, and energetic patterns that have prevented you from expressing your highest potential. This isn't about fighting your shadows but about integrating them with the wisdom and guidance of your optimal future self. Your optimal future self has already transformed every limitation you currently carry into strength, wisdom, and power. They understand exactly which patterns need clearing and have the perspective to guide you through this integration with love and precision. Today, they reach back through time to help you release everything that no longer serves your highest expression. This activation works because your shadows aren't obstacles to overcome but aspects of yourself requiring integration and healing. Your optimal future self has already completed this shadow work successfully and now shares their wisdom to accelerate your transformation. By the end of our time together, you will have cleared the energetic path for your optimal self to express fully through your life.

Episode Summary:Welcome back to Construct Your Life! Today, I'm sharing a deep conversation with Omar Pinto about the essence of healthy masculinity, self-awareness, and spiritual growth. Omar explores how society's view of masculinity is shifting, emphasizing strength through vulnerability, discipline, and self-mastery. We discuss how modern men can break free from outdated stereotypes, reconnect with their true selves, and harness their energy for purpose and fulfillment. Omar also emphasizes the importance of breathwork, meditation, and intentional living as powerful tools to heal wounds, discover purpose, and become the best version of yourself.Key Highlights: - The Truth About Masculinity: Strength isn't about control or dominance but about emotional resilience, discipline, and vulnerability.- Healing Through Self-Awareness: How confronting your shadows and childhood wounds is essential for authentic growth.- The Power of Breathwork & Meditation: These simple, free tools can reset your nervous system, reduce anxiety, and help you access higher states of consciousness.- Breaking Society's Stereotypes: Men are often told to suppress feelings, but true masculinity includes emotional intelligence and self-love.- Purpose & Life Force Energy: Staying connected to your higher self and purpose keeps life fulfilling, especially as you age.- Shadow Work & Personal Growth: The real test of progress is facing painful truths and doing the inner work — it's a lifelong journey.- Living Authentically: Moving away from societal pressures and social media's superficial success to focus on inner alignment and real connection.Final Tips:If you want to become a healthier, more authentic masculine man, start with self-awareness, embrace vulnerability, and utilize free practices like breathwork and meditation. Focus on purpose, set boundaries, and don't shy away from shadow work — it's the path to true strength. Your growth is a continual process, and real change begins from within.If this episode resonated with you, share it with a friend and keep constructing your best life!
