CONNOR BEATON - The Transformative Art of Shadow Work

The Joe Horton Show

I am joined by accomplished TEDx Speaker, Shadow Work Therapist and Teacher, Podcaster and Founder of the Man Talks Community – Connor Beaton. Have you ever felt like there is an invisible force that holds you back, that sabotages your progress, gets in the way of who you want to become and where you want to go in life. Shadow Work a concept developed by Jung that helps us get in touch with and overcome some of the parts of ourselves that we don’t always like and work against us. Grab a pen and paper as there is a ton of actionable content in this one!! Connor and I discuss the following: The nature of our shadow as a false ego which sabotages us when we ignore it and works against our best intentions. Why men struggle to get their true needs met when their shadow is running the show continuously The elements at play in one dimensional masculinity which have contributed to men hitting rock bottom before they help themselves. Why the eradication of structures which support men, lack of hierarchies and rights of passage are working against men right now Some powerful strategies to diffuse your shadow in times of conflict with your spouse.
