Premieres March 28, 2025 -- In this eye-opening episode of the Mindfully Gay Podcast, co-hosts Jerry Buie and John Cottrell explore the complex and transformative world of Shadow Work, breaking it down in a way that's relatable, relevant, and real.

What is shadow work, really? Jerry and John begin by offering a clear, analytical definition of this powerful inner process before expanding the conversation to include real-world examples that impact the LGBTQ+ community every day. Together, they examine how queer individuals can sometimes become tethered to the identity of the "wounded" or "victimized" community -- and how that narrative, while rooted in truth, may actually limit personal growth and empowerment.
