Self-love isn't found in affirmations and bubble baths. Real self-love requires something most of us were never taught — the ability to sit in silence with ourselves, face our own minds, and stop running from what we find there.

In this episode of The Caim Circle Podcast, shadow work coach and trauma-informed yogi Jessa Frances gets honest about what it actually means to do the inner work — including what happens when you think you've healed something and life brings you right back to it.

If you've ever searched for how to practice self-love, how to stop negative self-talk, or how to begin shadow work, this episode will meet you where you are.

We cover:

• Why silence is the foundation of true self-love
• How shadow work reveals where you're living out of alignment
• The difference between the ego self and the higher Self
• Why healing isn't linear — and what the spiral actually looks like
• How to stop avoiding yourself and start closing the gap
• The yogic concept of citta-vṛtti-nirodhaḥ and So Hum as tools for self-awareness
• Why busyness becomes identity — and what stillness asks of us instead

Whether you're new to shadow work, deep in your healing journey, or somewhere in the frustrating middle like Jessa is right now — this conversation will remind you that you're not behind. You're in process.
