Ep. 257 - How Your Shadow is Creating Your Reality

Your “Shadow” is pretty hard to wrap your mind around. But it’s in there – you have one. And it’s contributing to your sense of reality right now. It’s that part of you that thinks you’re not good enough, not cool enough, not smart enough. It’s the part of you that creates a narrative around why people don’t like you, why someone might be mad at you, why you might never have the things you want in life. We’ve got good news, though. Your shadow can be healed and integrated so that it’s no longer running your show. And a big part of that is simply educating yourself on this idea of “shadow work.” That’s what this episode is for. And no matter if you heard this episode when we originally aired it or it’s your first time listening, the more you learn about your shadow, the less it power it has over you. Lacy, Jess, and Dr. Tara break it all down from the perspective of manifestation, clinical psychology, and everything in between. You’ll hear personal stories from all three of them about overcoming their shadow aspects, specific signs that can point you toward your own shadow blocks, how this all plays into manifestation, and so much more. Remember: becoming self-aware means being willing to know all parts of you. Press play, and don’t be afraid to look 🙂

The Expanded Podcast, from To Be Magnetic™ (TBM), is the leading manifestation podcast rooted in neuroscience, psychology, and energetics. Hosted by TBM’s Chief Content Officer Jessica Gill, with monthly appearances from founder Lacy Phillips, Expanded is where science and the mystical meet to help you manifest in the most grounded, practical, and life-changing way.

At TBM, we’ve redefined manifestation through Neural Manifestation™—our proven, science-backed method developed with neuroscientist Dr. Tara Swart. This process helps you reprogram limiting beliefs at the subconscious level so you can create the life most aligned with your authenticity.

Each week, we take you inside the TBM practice to help you expand your subconscious to believe what you desire is possible. Through expert interviews, thought leader conversations, TBM teachings, and real member success stories, you’ll learn how to:
– Rewire your subconscious mind and step into your worth
– Heal your inner child and integrate shadow work
– Set boundaries, strengthen intuition, and reclaim self-worth
– Manifest relationships, careers, abundance, and experiences that align with your true self

With over than 40 million downloads and a global community in over 100 countries, Expanded has become the gold standard in manifestation content. Think of it as your weekly practice for expanding your mind, believing what you want is possible, and manifesting the life you’re meant to live.
