You pour the concrete, stack the bricks, polish the floors.
Hang banners that say “Look at MEEE… Success is coming!”
And you visualize the beautiful view from the top of the hill.
But deep under the surface, your foundation is crackin'.
A fault line runs through it - built from…
👉unhealed shame
👉suppressed rage
👉unmet needs
👉fear of being seen
👉unconscious self-worth stories
I thought I knew what this all meant when I was younger 😏
I thought success was strategy.
Mindset was enough.
And thought if I just pushed harder, I’d outrun the cracks.
"I was wrong.
Ignorant.
And to my own undoing, I did what I ‘knew’ best...
Stacked wins on top of unexamined wounds."
I mean... c'mon!
I did what I ‘knew’ best at the time 😉
Every time I climbed higher, the ground trembled harder.
Later, when I finally began this Work, I realized something else…
The most successful people in the world?
They’ve already walked this path (whether they knew the ancient names for it or not.)
👉 Tony Robbins calls it “changing your state” - but that’s really altering your vibration and transforming trapped emotional patterns.
👉 Oprah Winfrey speaks openly about “bringing your whole self to the table” - but that’s the essence of shadow reclamation.
👉 Will Smith once said: “You can't achieve outward success until you clean your internal house.”
He’s talking about walking into the dungeon of your mind (where all the repressed shit is stored).
👉 Ray Dalio — the billionaire hedge fund leg-end - built an entire philosophy around “radical truth and radical transparency” - meaning...
Bring what is hidden into the light.
👉 Michael Jordan: known for extreme discipline, has spoken about “embracing fear, not avoiding it” another shadow principle.
Transmutation, not bypass.
Listen... this ain't woo woo shit.
This is REALITY
It's how the real players operate.
The ones who hold success without crumbling.
They’ve done The Work.
"Or life forced them to do it."
And those who refuse?
You see them fly high - and fall faster.
Again. And a fkin’gain.
So if you’re still trying to build the tower without laying the foundation - you already know where that leads.
I’ve walked that road.
Now I walk another.
And if you’re ready to pick up the torch - I’ll show you the path."*
