He discusses the differences between repression &amp; suppression &amp; how shadow material can accumulate over time &amp; unconsciously influence our behavior &amp; relationships.</p><p><br></p><p>Pepe delves into the concept of exploring the parts of ourselves that we often deny or refuse to acknowledge. He shares his own journey &amp; personal anecdotes to illustrate how these shadow aspects actually manifest in our thoughts &amp; behaviors, highlighting the duality of human nature—our capacity for both compassion &amp; cruelty. The episode emphasizes the importance of self-awareness &amp; acceptance of all facets of our identity for personal growth &amp; healthier interactions with others.
