What if the parts of us we try hardest to hide are the very ones that hold the key to healing?In this episode, I sit down with Rebecca Jarvis, founder of the Dark Water Institute, to talk about the emotional landscapes we’re often taught to fear – grief, shame, fear, uncertainty – and why these so-called "dark" feelings might actually be worth staying with, not fixing.Rebecca brings years of experience in trauma, crisis care, and healing. Her work invites people into emotional depth with compassion – not to transform darkness into light, but to make room for what’s real.What we talk about in this episode:Redefining darkness: why it doesn’t need to be feared or fixedThe role of self-trust in moving through discomfortHow sensitivity offers a different kind of wisdom in the healing processLetting go of emotional performance and building true connectionWhat it looks like to build capacity for discomfort – one small step at a timeMore about Rebecca:You can learn more about Rebecca’s work via her website and LinkedIn:Website: darkwaterinstitute.comLinkedIn: Rebecca JarvisRebecca also offers virtual "Lily Pad Sessions" – short, grounding sessions for those looking to explore trust, healing, and support in a gentler way.Want to get in touch?
