As autumn deepens and shadows grow longer, we’re invited to turn inward — to meet the parts of ourselves that have been waiting in the quiet. In this episode, Mindy explores what it means to walk beside your shadow instead of running from it, and how the contrast between light and dark can reveal your truest strength.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

* What the shadow really is — and why it’s not something to fix

* How contrast helps us find clarity and direction

* The truth about softness and strength (and how they work together)

* Why healing is a cyclical process, not a straight line

* How your shadow can become a compass for your growth

This conversation invites you to slow down, breathe, and remember that both your light and your darkness are sacred parts of who you are.

Favorite line:

“Your shadow isn’t here to destroy you — it’s here to guide you home.”

Listen to this episode when:

* You’re feeling pulled between strength and softness

* You’re moving through change or reflection

* You need a gentle reminder that you don’t have to be all light to be whole
