Insecurities, selfish impulses, and mean streaks. From childhood, we are taught to repress these Jungian “shadow” traits, conditioned instead to be prosocial in all aspects of life. The problem is, these traits tend to leak out as we get older. 

That’s right, this episode’s all about leakage. 

What triggers our shadow traits and how can we channel them in healthy ways? Join us as we also discuss the kinds of people we dislike/are turned off by, and attempt to understand why we have these feelings to begin with. We get a little vulnerable and reveal our unsavory characteristics. But that's all part of the self-awareness journey. Your shadow can be your friend, if you'll allow it. And after listening to this episode, you should probably address your own leakage too.
