Three Key Points:

Shadows are those things we experience that we have judgement on. We tend to suppress and stuff them deep inside of us. There are light shadows and dark shadows.

The shadow is the part of us that we can’t learn to love about ourselves.

We’re conditioned by society that events and things happen to us in a victim mentality. So, when there’s people in the world that think outside of this box, others think they’re abnormal.

Show Notes:

6:04 — People either think they’re invisible and need to stand out more, or they feel like limiting beliefs are what’s stopping them. Jenny Kovacs shares that the shadow is like a ponytail on the back of your head. When you try to turn your head to look for it, then the shadow moves, and you can’t find it.

9:00 — When you dig into specifically what you don’t like in someone else, often it’s in our own shadows. Jenny shares more about how the shadow affects business owners and CEOs in ways they don’t even notice.

13:14 — Jenny shares how people see the shadows in themselves when it comes to political figures or actions. She shares that sometimes we can accept change, but sometimes we cannot.

15:00 — When it comes to politics or world events, we can try to be in denial, but we can’t stay there very long. With what happens in the world, someone is going to notice and bring it to light.

17:45 — Vince shares a story about how he’s had to deal with his own shadow of road rage. A shadow of arrogance as well had to do with an experience he had as a child, and Vince shares the story in detail about what happened in his life.

20:42 — We typically don’t give any thought to “how do we resolve this, and what would we rather have instead?” Because of this, Jenny shares that we then don’t have clarity, focus, or a plan to do it. Shadows aren’t real. They seem real to us, but they are constructs within our own minds.

23:45 — Overcoming the shadow and looking at what we want to achieve in others as a point of reference, we can then find the tools and power within ourselves to obtain those achievements that we want. Jenny shares how it’s possible to dig within yourself, discover your shadow and break their negative beliefs.

28:00 — It’s an inside job discovering why we’re invisible or why we think we’re invisible. Jenny shares that people don’t learn at school how to present themselves, their value, or credibility in a way that people take notice.

30:12 — Jenny shares some details about how she helps her clients feel and put off more confident energy. This inspires families, spouses, and even children to start doing things they’ve never discussed before.

34:34 — Often we believe that our voices don’t matter. That’s part of what keeps us invisible and prevents us from speaking out. Jenny shares that by going inside to the space inside of you that no one else can get to. This is a clean space and sit in this space as many times as you can throughout the day. Whether that’s through meditation or other methods.
