#77: Romancing the Shadow, Connie Zweig

June 12, 2025 · 56 min

Show notes

In this episode I will be discussing with Connie Zweig, Jungian Psychotherapist and best-selling author of several books on the shadow-work. In the episode we will be touching the questions such as:

How do you learn to 'romance your shadow'? What happens when two shadows meet in a 'shadow marriage'? And how can we tell if our relationships are truly fostering our growth, or if certain 'shadow characters' are holding us back?


Connie Zweig, Ph.D. is a retired Jungian therapist and author of Meeting the Shadow (A New Edition is now available) and Romancing the Shadow (A New Edition is now available). Her award-winning book, The Inner Work of Age: Shifting from Role to Soul, extends Shadow-work into midlife and beyond and explores aging as a spiritual practice. Her book, Meeting the Shadow on the Spiritual Path: The Dance of Darkness and Light in Our Search for Awakening, extends shadow-work into religion and spirituality. Her new PODCAST, Dr. Neil’s Spiritual Awakening to Non-Duality, posts on all podcast platforms. See her new SUBSTACK for livestreams and new writing: https://www.shadowworkawareness.com/about.
