From Darkness to Light episodes

  • Social Media Addiction - Clubhouse
    Today’s episode is about social media addiction and the effect Clubhouse has had för me. After four weeks on Clubhouse, I feel stressed, drained, hung over and a bit depressed. I’m not the person who hangs out on social media 24/7, but with Clubhouse I made an exception, I felt this was “my platform”.Finally, voice, the spoken word, real conversations and no longer a written monologue! Link in my bio, From Darkness to Light, available where you normally listen to podcasts, the episode is called Social Media Addiction - Clubhouse. I will follow up the podcast with a room for sharing and reflection probably tomorrow, on Clubhouse of course…! So if you are on Clubhouse and would like to have an honest talk about what Social Media does to us, join me. Love you! #clubhouse #addict # socialmediaaddiction #podcast #fromdarknesstolight #sharingswithshama

  • Self-esteem and Self-love - 3 major insights

    Maybe the level of self-esteem and self-love we have today is ok? Maybe we don't need to adjust it, strive to increase it, just embrace ourselves and accept that it is what it is, today. Tomorrow is a different story.

    New episode of my podcast is out where I share 3 major insights around self-esteem and self-love, available where you normally listen to podcasts.

  • Corona as a Guide to Healing

    What if Corona isn't a curse, but a guide to healing? Did you ever consider why children are unaffected and why some of us get extremely ill? Why doesn't the virus treat as equally, why does it distinguish between blood types and underlying conditions? What i the virus actually is a sign, a guide that points to a weak spot or area inside us? Maybe it's a clue that we have some healing inside to do.

    Listen to my latest episode around Corona and healing and how we can prepare our physical and emotional beings to better sustain and manage catching COVID-19.

  • The meaning of life - To be for each other

    We live in a world where everything is a race, something to accomplish or show. Money, power, looks, success, happiness, even love is something we show as if it's a price on social media. This can never be the purpose of our lives, to become or earn or win against each other. The meaning of life must be the opposite, to be here for each other, without demands and conditions. Just being, together. Listen to my new episode today.

  • Emotional Healing - To become whole is not the goal

    If we would heal, would we then be able to feel and communicate with each other the way we do? Isn't the wounds and traumas what makes us the most vulnerable and the most human? That make us open up or shut down the most?What if to become whole isn't the goal, but to learn to live and enjoy our wounds as a way of communication?

  • Childhood Traumas - Also what we didn't give matters

    In todays episode I share about the importance of giving in life in relationship to childhood traumas. When connection is broken, it's not only what we didn't receive as children that we're missing, it's also the giving of love, care and support. Thankfully we can project this missing part into other paternal or maternal figures in our lives, once the part that was unfulfilled in us is fulfilled.

  • One Day at a Time - Let's talk about suicide episode 5

    Suicide is like a minority, a discriminated cause of death. We've learned that it's all us priviledged people who need to stand up for black lives and fight racism, and it's the same with mental health. To fight for your life when you are struggling, instead of getting the support from a helping hand is different. Just like the one's who's never been discriminated must take action, the ones who've never suffered from mental illness must take action. It's not ok to say it doesn't concern me because I don't suffer from it. We see an increase in suicides in young girls age 15-24 and in today's episode I talk a lot about puberty and how important it is that we step in as parents with greater support these sensitive year going from being a child into being a young adult.

  • Not My Circus, Not My Monkeys
    How many times do we find ourselves drawn into someone else's drama, because of their bad behaviour or judgement? This is the root of being codependent, you engage in someone else's life and put their problems and issues first and you second. We didn't ask to be let down, dissapointed or lied to, and we didn't ask for all the consequences that come together with this. In this episode I share about disengaging and not participaing, and by doing so, no longer being an enabler. The result is more peace, joy and freedom.

  • We Are All Liars
    It seems as if lying is part of our personality, we all lie to some extent. White lies, big lies, hidden agendas, twisting facts, covering up. How did we become like this? Listen to my exploration of the connection between birth and death, fear and love, parents and children and why lying has become almost natural to us. We lie in order to protect ourselves or others, the question is, is it ever right?
