S7 E2: Why shadow work keeps you stuck (and what to do instead)

The Empowered Modern Witches Show

Most of the ways you've been taught to do shadow work will actually keep you stuck in the same old loops for years on end. You journal, you reflect, you pull tarot cards, you analyze your astrology chart — but nothing in your real life actually changes.

Even when you have a lot of self-awareness and understand where your shadows come from, if you're approaching this work only intellectually, and not moving your shadows out of your body or making changes in your real daily life... you're going to stay stuck.

In this episode, you’ll discover why that happens — and what to do instead.

You’ll learn:
✨ The three phases of shadow work (and why you get trapped in phase two of understanding)
✨ Why awareness and understanding aren’t enough to shift your subconscious patterns
✨ How to reclaim your shadows instead of trying to fix or heal yourself

I’ll also share my own stories of reclaiming shadows like anger, anxiety, and “neediness” in my relationships — and how you can do the same in your own life.
