Best of DFB: Nikki Silvestri on Seeds of Connection, Integration and Discernment as Tools, and Welcoming Your Shadow Back Home [episode 102]


Listen Later

In this Best of DFB, we revisit Nikki Silvestri. Nikki is a new Mama and speaker with equal parts vulnerability and razor-sharp analysis. She is the Founder of Soil and Shadow and working to create system change while improving relationships between communities. In this conversation we get into:



Why our good ideas don’t flourish because we don’t know how to work well together






How your change-making work can reflect abundance and not scarcity






How the process of shadow work makes you face your own worst nightmares






How once your life has changed you realize there isn’t that much to be afraid of






What it takes to ask yourself new questions






How the seed of shadow work is allowing opposites to exist simultaneously that seem irreconcilable






Why we are obsessed with reconciliation as a society






Why suffering is a part of life and how you have to accept it as such






Why connection is the seed of everything, and how it creates possibilities that didn’t exist before






How boundaries enable you to do your own work






How to welcome the shadow parts of yourself back home






How shadow work makes you a better leader by allowing you to see all of yourself






Why we need to speak to people in a language they understand when approaching shadow work






How anything you are attracted to or repulsed by is your shadow at play






How you can find yourself in the projection of your shadow






Why learning to properly integrate shadow work is so important






Discernment is how to stay on the good side of shadow work






Why it’s necessary to uncover limiting beliefs






How being a mother shows you where you are managing your experiencing vs just experiencing






Why you are not the extreme versions of yourself




How practicing whole traditions leads to wholeness
