A new and exciting phenomenon is gaining ground in popular culture; people are beginning to talk seriously about doing their shadow work. The idea of shadow work is now being readily promoted by therapists and coaches alike on social media and podcasts.
My fascination with all things dark and shadowy began at my birth. Born blue and not breathing, I was resuscitated and placed in a humicrib, separated from my mother.
