Shadow Work? Ky, wtf you talking about now?

Shadow Work: Working with your unconscious mind to uncover the parts of yourself that you repress and hide from yourself.

Everyone wears a mask at some point in their lives, but the truth is that you are still living your truth, even when you're hiding behind a facade. If that truth happens to be that you're a liar, you're only doing a disservice to yourself by not being honest. You are the only one who can truly represent yourself, so why not do it honestly? Take off your mask and look beneath it. You might be surprised to discover all your beautiful characteristics that you've demonized or allowed others to taint. Don't wait any longer. Be truthful and authentic, starting today.
