Episode 121 - The Psychic Split: How We Become Divided From Ourselves

The BigTalk Podcast

Show Notes

What if the person you've spent your life becoming is only part of who you are?

From an early age, we learn who we're supposed to be, what earns approval, and which parts of ourselves are welcome (and which parts aren't)!

Over time, we can lose touch with aspects of ourselves that don't fit the person we've learned to become.

But the curious part?

Those aspects of ourselves don't just disappear for good.

They fall unconscious, yet continue to take on a (very private!) life of their own behind the scenes.

In Psychodynamic Coaching, we call this phenomenon the 'Psychic Split'.

In Episode 121, I explore exactly how this split develops, and why understanding it is a fundamental part of taking our clients deeper, and supporting them to achieve incredible results in their lives.

Personally? You'll also discover how recognising these hidden dynamics within yourself can help you understand your patterns, reconnect with more of who you are, and begin to bring your unique qualities and potential more fully into your life and your coaching business too.
