This Free Spirit

This is an update on how I work today. It's always changing, but this is how I see things as of now.  If you are interested in working with me or being in the Healing Collective (either in person in Colorado Springs or online) contact me and/or explore my offerings on my website.

In my continual quest to de-stigmatize narcissism. I talk here about the types of unhealthy narcissism and how we can easily pull these patterns of archetypal energy through our psyches into our lives in different ways, including via the shame and grandiosity pattern.

Lately, I've thought a lot about narcissism.  The campaign against narcissists has scared us off from self-love and has made us blind to our inner narcissist. I just want to lay out the landscape a little and think about how we can be our fully expressed in an interdependent way.

It's okay to love yourself. Did you know? You are allowed. Some might say, you are even obligated. 

And that's going to require some good old fashioned selfishness. This episode is about how love reflects through us. And I make the case for spreading radical love over the entire project of our human existence.  From here, we can launch into our wildness, but maybe we should get a lay of the land. How to steer healthy narcissism and own your shit in the next episode.

Here's a metaphor for you. You are wildlife. Free and untamed, you are righteous and balanced. But when the hunter tries to destroy your peace, you frequently forget that he shoots blanks, and as soon you merge the with idea of fear, it evaporate and you are instantly, wild.

Since we are getting re-acquainted, I thought I would share some stories with you about the foundational experiences that made me, free of spirit, and wild.
