Exploring Shadow Work and Internal Family Systems

In this episode, we dive deep into the practice of shadow work journaling with Oliver Mann—journaling mentor, teacher, and co-founder of the Barcelona Journaling Festival. Oliver shares how shadow journaling became a turning point in his life and offers a practical, compassionate path for others to begin exploring the parts of themselves they’ve learned to hide.

We talk about the psychology behind the shadow, the three stages of Oliver’s shadow journaling method, and how shadow work journaling can help us grow in self-awareness, release internal friction, and reconnect with our full, authentic selves.
