#064: Shadow Work, Ayahuasca, and Turning Within With Steven Twohig
Description
In this episode, I am joined by Steven Twohig.
Steven is a pioneer of Shadow Work and the author of the new book, ‘Turning Within: Reclaim Your Soul from Shadow‘ which is a top Amazon new release in the New Thought category.
Steven specializes in helping individuals
reclaim their true selves from the depths of their subconscious.
During our conversation, Steven shared what shadow work is and what to expect in a shadow work ceremony.
We also unpacked so much of the wisdom found in his new book, Turning Within (one of my current favorite books!). We went deep, and I always love chatting with Steven because he is a true genius on this topic.
You’ll even hear about how the last time I interviewed him had a huge influence on my decision to finally do ayahuasca (plant medicine), and some circles that we discovered Steven may have sat in with my father. So cool!
If you’ve ever wondered what shadow work is or wanted to learn about some of the things that might be standing in your way when it comes to self discovery, emotional mastery, and healing, this episode (and his book) will help you.
Enjoy the episode!

Our shadows are the parts of us that are hidden, repressed, or denied. Shadow work is diving into the deep conscious to unlock insights, break through barriers, and heal wounds that have us stuck in cycles and patterns of suffering.

We’ve been so busy trying to survive this life that many of us forget to live it. It’s just time to live life.

We are the ball on the ball point pen of creation, and our life is the stories we’re writing. And there’s genius coming through there, and it’s coming through whether we are conscious of it or not.
