In this episode, we delve into the complexities of navigating shadow work and managing dangerous urges through safe expression and guided exploration, while staunchly opposing exploitation. We openly discuss themes of consent, boundaries, and the importance of seeking professional help when faced with overwhelming feelings—highlighting that glamorizing such urges is not an option.
Tune in for insights on our 2-E framework: Expression & Exploration, aimed at reducing risk by promoting safe, legal outlets and professional support. We establish bright lines to illustrate why exploitation is never acceptable. Gain a deeper understanding of how judgment can spike risks while containment can lower them, plus how to build authentic guardrails for navigating sensitive topics.
Discover the pitfalls of social media hot takes compared to the benefits of careful and supervised work, and why quick-fix solutions often fall short compared to qualified care.
Post one safe, legal outlet you’ll use this week AND the professional step you’ll take (e.g., schedule with a licensed therapist, group counseling, etc.). Our Discord "The Struggle Bus" is ONLY for support—we are NOT therapists, but we can point you in the right direction. (link below)
REMEMBER: You are NOT a bad person if you take responsibility for your urges and seek professional help if you can't control them.
If you’re struggling (U.S.): Call/Text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, 24/7).
If anyone is in immediate danger, call 911
