    Hidden Doorways: Finding Your Inner Life
    Sep 3 2025
    The Hidden Way is here for those of us quietly carrying something heavy—for seekers, creatives, and deep feelers, as well as the therapists, coaches, and healers who walk alongside them.In this first episode, I share:-How this podcast began: The unexpected moment that shifted my focus from writing a book to creating a space for spoken reflection and conversation.-Who it’s for: Those who feel like a mystery to themselves, those longing for clarity and language for what they carry, and those who help others do the same.-How metaphors and symbols (like rivers and secret gardens) help us access our inner life, and why I believe they can open hidden doorways into parts of ourselves we’ve forgotten or misunderstood.If you’ve ever wanted to feel seen, to find new ways of making sense of the old stories and patterns that keep repeating in your life, or to bring together the poetry and practicality of healing—this space is for you.To go deeper into this topic & for journal prompts & additional resources >> Subscribe to my Substack newsletterJoin the conversation on Instagram >> @thehiddenwaypodDon't miss an episode >> Follow The Hidden Way wherever you listen to podcasts.This podcast isn't therapy, but I hope it feels therapeutic.
