“Shadow work.” One of the things that makes the 12 Step program so effective is the fact that it’s all shadow work. In other words, each of the steps does a good job of making us turn around and keep the focus on ourselves rather focusing on what’s wrong with everybody else. (The song is “Open Your Eyes (What’s Goin On)” from my recovery musical The Journey https://youtu.be/MEMt-0IDKnY?si=czFIO-kF6UUZFC25)

I’ve FINALLY made this available to more people than just my own clients by putting this material into an awesome new mini-course, which includes: • 2 hours of videos, • 40 page eBook, • audiobook version of the eBook.
