Shadow Work, Ego Death, and Finding Bliss: Facing the Dark to Find Your Light with AnnieWhat if the parts of you you’ve avoided are the ones holding your wisdom? In this episode, I sit down with Annie to explore the real work beneath “love and light” — and why the dark isn’t something to fear.You’ll hear how Annie created her approach, Awakening the Seeds, after more than 10,000 sessions, and why she calls herself an “ego death doula.” We talk about grief, liminal spaces, and how nervous system regulation and shadow work support creativity, leadership, and everyday life — especially for those of us who are neurodivergent or living in survival mode.I reveal the moments that stopped me in my tracks, and you’ll discover how Annie helps people move from masking and reactivity to calm, clear choice. Curious how to know if you’re bypassing? What integration actually looks like? Or why ideas often meet us in the dark? We get into all of it — without shying away from the hard parts.About the GuestAnnie is a healer and creator of Awakening the Seeds. She’s led over 10,000 sessions, trained across multiple modalities, and co-founded Seeds of Bliss, a space focused on bridging light and shadow, life and death, mind and emotion.Key Timestamps<ul><li>0:22 – Annie’s early intuition and the moment everything changed</li><li>2:14 – Why therapy wasn’t her door and what opened instead</li><li>5:07 – Hitting walls with clients and creating a new modality</li><li>8:33 – Living in the liminal: life, death, grief, and growth</li><li>10:39 – The shadow side of healing (and why light alone falls short)</li><li>14:35 – Bypassing vs healing: simple signals to watch</li><li>15:51 – Ego death: letting go of identities that keep you small</li><li>19:01 – Seeds of Bliss: bridging opposites and cyclical living</li><li>39:58 – Neurodivergence, intensity, and tools that actually help</li><li>47:30 – Integration in real life: how you’ll know it’s working</li></ul>If this resonates, share the episode with someone who needs to hear it.
