Hello Beautiful People!
On today’s podcast we have the gorgeous Dr Joanna LaPrade. Joanna is a Jungian psychologist who has a Ph.D in Jungian and archetypal psychology, and is currently a practising psychotherapist. She is the author of the book, ‘Forged in Darkness: The Many Paths of Personal Transformation’.
What I personally love about this conversation is Joanna’s depth; and it is no surprise as she specialises in depth psychology which she explains in this episode. I always love the expansiveness of conversations like this, where the themes and traits that we usually suppress actually become the main points of focus. Why I love this so much is because not only does it avail the opportunity for you to see yourself and accept yourself in all of who you are, the light and the so-called ‘darkness’ but it also touches on the fundamentals of getting to the core problem and not simply treating the symptom. Time and time again, especially in becoming a Mindset Coach, I see so often people keeping in the safety of the surface, rather than exploring the long-term healing components of depth. Certainly a topic we touch on in this episode as we explore the power of self-awareness over strategy, and how the commercialisation of self-help has become a burden to the underworld of our psychology that is at the forefront of our current behaviour and what we just may like to change.
