How would your life look if you befriended your shadow? Would it lead to more self-acceptance and better boundaries? In this episode, we are pulling back the curtain to look at that part of ourselves that holds repressed, negative emotions. During these times of transition, it is the perfect time to expose those shadows to the light of day and take away the power it may hold over our lives.
The first step in befriending your shadow is to identify it and acknowledge that it’s there. Through recognizing the triggers, the words, the situations that hold us back from expressing ourselves and living our best lives, we are able to rewrite the script to what we want our lives to look like rather than what we’ve accepted it to be.
Some shadow emotions to explore may be:
Anger
Fear
Shame
Guilt
Embarassment
Repressed Sadness
Be honest with yourself about what you’re feeling is the first step to leading a more balanced and fulfilled life. In next week’s episode, we will take this work a step further and explore how to work with the chakras system to eradicate those shadows once and for all!

Integrating the Spiritual Laws of Love
Jun 19, 2023
Show notes
Many believe the root of how we navigate life emotionally can be traced back to either coming from a place of love or fear. Please join us today as Samantha and Denise explore the 7 Spiritual Love Laws and how you can integrate love into your life more fully.
The information shared in this episode is based on an article written by Irina Yugay. In her writing, she states: “The state of love is one of the highest energetic frequencies we can reach for. And you can cultivate it by applying its principles in your daily life.”
The 7 Spiritual Laws of Love:
Coherence: Embracing the state that brings harmony and balance to your world.
Benevolence: Learning how to show up consciously for the love you want for yourself
Intelligence: Awakening to the consciousness of creation
Ever-Present: The essence behind all creation
Splendor: Integrating love as part of your existence
Resonance: Reaching for the higher vibrations and raising your frequency
Immanence: Welcoming love as the gift of wealth and wisdom
The more we can do to find love for ourselves and for each other, the more we can reach our goal of coming together in unity. Love truly is the answer.

In this episode, we are honored to welcome Sarah McInnis! At the heart of her work, Sarah is a songwriter, co-creator, and believes in the profound power of storytelling for healing.
In April 2021 Sarah began The Legacy Song Project, writing original songs for folks at the end-of-life, and for folks who have lost loved ones. For the past year she has been working on an off-shoot of the wider project: Sarah, and filmmakers, Aly Kelly and Pat LePoidevin, teamed up to interview four individuals at end-of-life and four who have lost loved ones, representing all four Atlantic Canadian provinces. In this evocative short film and live musical performance, they capture stories about the universal experiences of loss and how songwriting can be used as a bridge to connect us with our loved ones, past and present. Featuring the profound stories of 8 Atlantic Canadians, The Legacy Song Project: Atlantic Chapter is an exploration of death, dying, grief, loss, and love, through the transformational lenses of documentary film and songwriting. Sarah resides in the Annapolis Valley, Nova Scotia, Canada.
