    Season 7 Episode 2: “Shadow Work: Completion, Reflection & Renewal Through the 12 Shadow Archetypes”

    In this episode, we’re exploring the 12 Shadow Archetypes that show up when we’re stressed, triggered, overwhelmed, or emotionally unsafe — including: The Victim (“nothing ever works out for me”) The Martyr (self-sacrifice + resentment) The Controller (micromanaging to feel safe) The Pleaser (people-pleasing to avoid conflict) The Perfectionist (worth tied to performance) The Inner Critic (self-attack as protection) The Saboteur (fear of success + vulnerability) The Avoider (numbing + procrastination) The Narcissist/Ego (superiority as defense) The Judge (criticism to feel safe) The Rebel (resisting even what can help) The Rescuer (fixing others to avoid self) And here’s the most important truth: ✨ Your shadow is not your enemy. Your shadow is a wounded part of you asking for healing. Season 7 is about: ✅ Completion — ending cycles that cost you peace ✅ Reflection — telling the truth without shame ✅ Renewal — choosing new responses that honor your growth

    Season 6 Episode 31 “End of Season 6 - Getting Ready for Season 7"

    Season 6 of The Positive Professional Podcast is officially wrapped—and this final episode is a reflection, a thank you, and a truth-telling moment. This podcast began during the pandemic as a way to offer grounding, support, and mental health tools in a time of uncertainty. Six years later, I’m still here—because of you. In this episode, I share how I had to fight through imposter syndrome, quiet the voice that told me I wasn’t “qualified enough,” and finally say: ✨ Yes—I can be a podcaster too. Season 6 was about slowing down, regulating the nervous system, setting boundaries, releasing perfectionism, and choosing healing over hustle. It was deep. It was honest. And it was necessary. As we prepare for Season 7, the number 7 represents completion, reflection, and renewal—making this transition especially meaningful. Season 7 launches January 16, 2026. New conversations. Deeper embodiment. Continued growth. Thank you for listening, sharing, and growing with me for the past six years. Your support means everything. Listen to the Season 6 finale now Season 7 begins January 16, 2026
