Shadow Work Voice Notes

Natalie Ivette

A shadow work audio diary by Natalie Ivette - Join me as I share my inner musings, thought processes, and embrace my vocal self-expression. This podcast emerged from an unexpected impulse to just… SPEAK! To allow myself to say it all… put it all into spoken word. (A new way of being for me!) So come listen in as I share these thoughts and musings... as I work through my own *ish* in real-time in some instances, even! It will be real and raw and expressive. And I hope that if you've stumbled across these thoughts of mine, they will help open up your own inner world further.

    22. What does training cats have to do with human interactions?!

    Yep. I'm talking about cats again 🤭😸 They say you can't train a cat, but the truth is... you so can. It's just not the same as with dogs. What does that have anything at all to do with humans and shadow work?! Well, the thing is, we can learn a lot about interacting with each other from cats. Respect. Giving space. Saying no. Learning how to pay attention and focus on the positive in order to create a win-win situation... I've said it before (in episodes 16. Freedom & self-regulation, and 4. Lessons from a cat): I have learned a lot about how to interact with humans in healthier ways through my cats. In this voice note, I started out with the impulse to talk about my thoughts on training cats, but the conversation deepens in such a way that it eventually leads me to talking about the levels of consciousness and how we interact with each other. And teaser alert... it inspired me to immediately record the next entry (coming next week), which is a dive deep into an explanation of the level of consciousness within us and how they affect our relationships and interactions. It's probably going to be one of the best episodes that I've recorded, and this one is the sort of the prologue to it. You don't want to miss either of these voice notes! So, let's talk about my sweet kitties and how observing them is always teaching me so much about myself!! 🪐 Who am I? I am Natalie Ivette, Shadow Work Coach and founder of ⁠⁠⁠Saturnish⁠⁠⁠.

    21. Sensations, Pluto, Musings, Lesson (Another practical look into my shadow work process)

    I talk about listening to your body all the time, but in this entry, I am giving you a look at how I do this for myself in real-time. I was feeling off when I recorded this voice note and decided to make a record of me talking it out. In this voice note, I exemplify the process of allowing your feelings and sensations to speak to you/how to interpret what you are feeling... and how to use the mind to actually help you rather than hinder you. I also discuss a little astrology here, as I have been experiencing my Pluto square this year- and let me tell you... it has been quite challenging! (Just FYI, I actually recorded this note back in July, so when I'm talking Pluto and where it is in its retrograde, it is relevant to mid-July.) I talk a bit about how I have been feeling this transit affects me as well and how it relates to my sensations. This is quite an interesting one, even if (I will admit) it may get a little ramble-y in the middle. It's part of my storytelling process!! :) 🪐 Who am I?

    19. Thinking about feelings vs FEELING your feelings

    Ok. This is one of the most important conversations that we have and it is the foundation of the deeply transformative kind of shadow work that I do and guide others through. Feeling your feelings. I know it can seem a little like, well, duh, right?! 😅You just... feel them!! But what does that actually mean? And here's the real interesting thing: In my work with and interactions with so many people, I came to discover that most people don't actually know how to even begin to feel and hold space for their feelings. They THINK that they are doing it... but what they are actually doing is just thinking about them. When I point that out, the response I get is... ok, but what else am I supposed to do?? In this entry, I discuss this oh-so-important difference and end up diving into the nuances and hows. You definitely don't want to miss this voice note!! And if you would like my help and guidance in your own shadow work journey, let's hop on a call and see how I can help you! - because let's be honest, this sort of work can be confusing when we have never held space for our feelings before!! 🪐 Who am I?

    18. Annoyed "rant" on superfluous spiritual practices... just feel your feelings!!

    I put rant in quotation marks because this probably barely qualifies as such haha... but it's as rant-y as I get. The thing is, I see so much conversation about different "spiritual" practices... protection... cleansing... together with conversations about "evolve... awake... ascent..." (yeah, I did a whole episode just on the concept of awakening and ascension already - check it out here! - but I have more to say on the subject lol!!) But the bottom line is that all of these things that so many people are talking about are so superfluous and unnecessary when you get right down to it... not when you are present in, fully processing and feeling your feelings!! Before recording this entry, I think I came across a post that spoke to these topics... something like, "How to protect your energy." or what have you... And I will admit. It set me off... got me tumbling down into some of my shadows, and that is the basis of where this little rant comes from. But as with anything, being present in it all is a part of the process, and I explore that some in this voice note as well. So join me as I explore my thoughts and as I indulge my need to vent a little, while also diving into some really deep insights about it all, at the same time! 🪐 Who am I?
