359: When the Neglected Comes Forward for Recognition

25 minutes

How might we engage with our inner world and find meaning in our experiences? In this episode we explore how we might embrace even the difficult parts of life as potential sources of wisdom and growth. And how this perspective can transform our relationship with challenging emotions and experiences, inviting us all to approach life's complexities with curiosity and openness.

The conversation weaves through topics such as the stories we tell ourselves about our experiences, the wisdom inherent in our inner responses to life events, and the possibility of finding value in even the most unwelcome feelings, making space for confusion, wonder, and the potential for transformation in our everyday lives.

Hosted, as always, by Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace.

Coming Home to Myself

The Self

pushes the neglected forward

for recognition.

Do not disregard it.

It holds energy

of highest value.

It is the gold in the dung.

Do not disregard the dung.
