In this powerful and refreshingly honest episode, I'm breaking down the myth that your “why” has to be deep, spiritual, or selfless to be valid. We’ve all heard that you need a meaningful “why” in order to create lasting change — but what if the desire to be rich, to be hot, or to prove something to yourself is enough?
We explore how embracing your shadow — those “unacceptable” reasons we tend to hide can actually be the fuel that drives you forward.

Shadow desires aren’t wrong… they’re just unspoken. And when you reclaim them, you step into your whole power.
This episode is your permission slip to stop judging what motivates you and start using it to change your life.
In this episode, we talk about:
- Why your “why” doesn’t need to be holy, selfless, or spiritual
- How your shadow desires hold potent energy when embraced
- The truth about shame, guilt, and the “real” reasons we want what we want
- How your desire to be rich, hot, or free is not bad—it’s human
- What shadow work really is and why it’s key to manifestation
- How to use even the “petty” version of your goals as momentum
- Powerful reflection questions to help you embrace your whole truth
Reflection Prompts:
- What’s my real why — even if it feels shallow or shadowy?
- What am I scared to admit I truly want?
- What would happen if I stopped judging my desire and started acting on it?
- What version of me is brave enough to own my true why and take action anyway?
