What if your confidence isn’t about becoming someone new — but remembering the parts of you you’ve been hiding?
In this episode of Proper Madness, I open up about how real self-confidence comes from making peace with your shadow — the parts of yourself you’ve been ashamed of, avoided, or labeled as “too much” or “not enough.”
I talk about my own journey of facing my shadow — from being too nice, too accommodating, and afraid to speak up… to reclaiming my voice, my desires, and the darker sides of myself that were always trying to protect me.
We’ll explore:
• What shadow work really means (beyond the buzzword)
• How self-sabotage can actually be your shadow asking to be heard
• Why confidence is built through self-forgiveness, not perfection
• The connection between your ego, higher self, and true embodiment
This one’s for anyone who’s been trying to “fix” themselves, when really, the healing comes from embracing all of yourself — the light and the dark.
Grab your tea, take a breath, and meet the parts of you that have been waiting to be seen.
