Welcome to the Mindful Mystics Podcast. I'm Cheryl Knight Wilson and I'm here with my co-hosts Chuck E. G. and Karen Frasier. Tonight we're going to discuss the fascinating and transformative realm of shadow work. And you might be asking, what exactly is shadow work? Well, I'll give you a little preview and then we'll get into a big discussion about it. It's a powerful practice within metaphysics that involves uncovering and integrating the hidden aspects of yourself. And it's exploring the unconscious parts of our psyche that we often repress or deny. And by embracing our shadows, we can often achieve greater self-awareness, healing, and personal growth.
What is shadow work and why is it introduced at the start of the episode?
Good evening, Karen and Chuck. Are you ready to talk about the benefits of shadow work? Yeah, that was like a super professional intro.
And I just want you to know that you got the job, Cheryl. Congratulations. I'm hired. I love it. You're hired after a year. How many years? How many years? Well, yeah, I know. We I was thinking about that the other day. I think we did our first podcast in like 2008.
Yes. So
we have been doing this for 16 years.
Okay. For a second I thought two thousand and seven, but maybe that's going back a little bit.
The magazine started in two thousand and seven. It took us a while to come around to the podcast. Okay,
gotcha. That's why.
So sixteen years. Can you believe that?
No. Wow. I can't believe it. It's awesome. Chuck
joined Chuck joined us a little later, but still, I mean, Chuck's been at it for more than ten with us, I'm sure.
Uh yeah, I think so. Somewhere around there, yeah.
Yeah. Look at us go. So anyway, officially you have the job. Look, you've done all the things right. You remember the name of the podcast. I mean, that's that's big brownie points for me.
Yes, yes. It is brownie points for you.
No, I mean brownie points from me. Oh, from you. I was
gonna say when you remember it, you get brownie points. No,
it's that from me that you remember it. And then you actually like research and you write something and it sounds coherent. And then you get Chuck and I babbling like idiots after. So kudos to you.
Well, here's the thing. You're not giving you guys enough credit because while I may ask a lot of questions, you both have a lot of in-depth knowledge on these topics, metaphysical, paranormal, all sorts of stuff. And so I love your perspective. So you're hired too.
Yay, we all got the world's longest audition, man. Let me tell you. We've been we have been auditioning for this for years. So hey Cheryl, before we start, um I wanted to ask you if you have there was something that we discussed, and I can pull this out of the recording if um it's premature, but we discussed something that might be worthy of announcing. Um related to the podcast.
Yes, yes, we do. We we have expanded the podcast onto several other platforms. Um is that what you're referring to there?
That and the other thing about the paranormal underground radio part.
Yes. So we're we've expanded onto other platforms. Finally, yay. You can find us on Spotify and and all of those other, you know, Amazon. Yes. Yes, we are. All sorts of good stuff. And you can find us back. Now I only think they go they don't go back to the beginning, but they do go back a number of years. And so you can always, though, if you want to go to our early years as Paranormal Underground Radio, go to podcast. Bean, which has our whole catalog going back to whole back catalog. Hold back buckets. Whole back log 2008. And so, um, but now we've expanded, and then we are also going to revive paranormal underground radio. And so what what we're not gonna end mindful mystics. Now we're gonna continue doing that every month, but we're also gonna add in.
Paranormal Underground Radio back into the mix. And that's going to be more focused on the paranormal, like um uh paranormal investigation and things surrounding that that more along the lines. And we do talk about that here occasionally as well, but we're gonna focus that a lot on paranormal underground radio. So expanding it. It's gonna be kind of like little bonus episodes.
