Shadow Work: Wholeness Through Integration

What if the parts of yourself you’ve been avoiding are actually the key to your peace?

This week on Rebranding Mental Health, Iman and Kurt are crawling into the metaphorical basement of the psyche (don’t worry, bring snacks). We’re talking about shadow work, what it is, what it’s not, and how to stop treating self-awareness like an exorcism.

Carl Jung called the shadow the “unconscious part of ourselves that the ego refuses to see.”
But here’s the twist: your shadow isn’t just the dark stuff, it’s also your hidden brilliance, confidence, creativity, and “too much-ness” you were told to tone down.

We’ll break down how the shadow gets formed, why triggers are actually treasure maps, and how integration, not annihilation, is the real goal.
Because wholeness isn’t about fixing yourself, it’s about befriending your inner chaos until it stops haunting you. So, appropriate for this Halloween Week! 👻
