Shining a Light on Your Dark Side
Episode 3: Keri Nola on Shadow Parts
What are you afraid of? What are you avoiding? Keeping hidden? In this episode of Awaken Your Wise Woman, host Elizabeth Cush talks with Keri Nola—known to her clients as the Queen of Abundance or the Shadow Mama—about bringing your gifts out of the shadows and into the light.
“As we bring light to these dark spaces, we reclaim our gifts.”
Show Notes:
We all have shadows—dark places that feel like they’re too scary to explore. But the truth is, the shadows are just as important as the light. Doing the hard stuff in a way that’s as gentle and healing as possible is the topic of this episode of the Awaken Your Wise Woman (previously Woman Worriers) podcast. Host Elizabeth Cush, LCPC, a licensed professional therapist, founder of Progression Counseling in Annapolis, Md., and a mid-life women’s life coach, welcomes Keri Nola, best-selling author, podcaster and founder of the Sacred Soul Circle For Healing Entrepreneurs, for a conversation about tapping into your dark and light energies to live in a more aligned way. They talk about shining a light into the shadows and illuminating the gifts that are hiding there. They also discuss the mind/body/spirit connection, the power of curiosity and using the Messages From Shadow oracle deck to gain insight—and do a card reading for listeners!
