Summary
Shadow work refers to the journey one takes to make that which is subconscious conscious, so to discover the lost facets of the self for the purpose of a more integrated sense of self and being-ness. In this episode, Breakthrough Life Coach Lisa A. Romano, author of the bestselling books The Road Back to Me, (2012) and the award-winning Codependency Manifesto and Codependent Now What? It's Not You, It's Your Programming delves into the specific shadow work necessary for a codependent people-pleaser.
Lisa points out that shadow work is the most profound self-discovery journey anyone can take. It should not be viewed as woo-woo or pseudo-psychology but instead, as an opportunity to more fully integrate the not-so-likable and very likable yet denied facets of the self in order to become more fully self-actualized.
Lisa has created several online courses and workbooks to assist with the self-discovery journey, otherwise called shadow work.

| 0:44.1 | Sometimes when we hear the term shadow work, we could assume that it has something to do with new age, |
| 0:50.0 | that it's anti-Christian even, or it's anti-religion, it's anti-spiritual. |
| 0:56.0 | It has something to do with the metaphysical world. |
| 0:58.0 | It has to do something with the new age world and ooh, it's like, you know, woo-woo, we shouldn't touch it. |

| 1:20.4 | That until you make that which is subconscious, conscious, it's going to control your life. |
| 1:26.2 | You're going to call it fate. |
| 1:29.2 | You'll think that you're doomed for bad luck. Or you'll think that you were never supposed to be happy. You'll think that bad things |
