Did you know that crime documentaries are watched by over 70% of streaming audiences?
Whether itโs binging on true crime shows or scrolling through shocking headlines, we canโt seem to look away from the dark side of humanityโeven when it makes us uncomfortable. But why are we drawn to the things that scare us the most?
Just like weโre drawn to the darkness in others, we also carry a fear of our own inner darknessโthose parts of ourselves we avoid.
Weโre both repelled and intrigued by those parts of humanity that arenโt being the good little humans we are supposed to be.
But hereโs the thing: we canโt stay voyeurs anymore.
By only focusing on the light, weโre sending the message that having darkness within us makes us ๐๐๐๐๐๐ or ๐ข๐๐ค๐๐๐กโ๐ฆ. But hereโs the truth: avoiding these parts of ourselves only makes us feel more disconnected, less whole, and more ashamed.
Today, I want to buck the stereotype completely and give you five reasons why you should start the journey of embracing your darkness and learning how not to be afraid.
Letโs dive in!

When you know your darkness, you can own it when it lashes out. You can apologize & take responsibility. This will lead to deeper, more meaningful relationships and emotional intimacy.
This is an important part of adulting.
For example, think about a time when you lashed out at someone you love. Owning that moment, apologizing, and acknowledging where it came from allows for healing and trust.

When you know your darkness, you can release judgment you have of others. You can see your own patterns reflected in them. Instead of repulsion or triggering, it can bring you closer.
When you recognize that your flaws and fears are just a part of being human, you start to see them in others too.
Instead of pushing people away, youโll draw closer with empathy.

When you know your darkness it cannot hijack you.
Have you ever caught yourself behaving in a way that feels completely unlike you? Maybe youโre doing or saying something you never, ever have before. Horrified. That is your unacknowledged darkness taking the wheel after decades of neglect.
Itโs like driving a car with an unruly passenger. If you never acknowledge theyโre there, they might grab the wheel. But if you know where they are, you can always keep control.

This is the most important reason for knowing your darkness.
You cannot only accept your light parts. You canโt parcel yourself up and just select the parts of yourself that are acceptable like a buffet. The relief of not having to fight yourself anymore is immeasurable.
Imagine what it feels like to stop hiding from your own reflection.

When you embrace your own darkness, people around you feel that energy. A close friend might see your journey and finally feel empowered to confront their own struggles, creating a ripple effect of healing.
Decades of conflict can come to an end. Years of self-abuse can be stopped forever. They can open a brand new chapter, that looks and feels more like the life they had in mind
When we start to accept our own darkness, we give others permission to do the same. This shift can create the space for something weโve all been searching forโpeace.
The world right now is overflowing with fear, division, and avoidance. If we want to change that, we have to start with ourselves. We have to be brave enough to face our shadows and embrace the parts weโve been running from.
Only then can we truly evolve and find real peace.
Which is what we are here for.

1. Start journaling about moments when your shadow side takes over.
2. Reflect on the patterns or triggers behind those moments.
3. Practice forgiveness and acceptance of those parts.
So, whatโs one part of yourself youโve been avoiding? Todayโs the day to start your journey of acceptance
