Reparenting Yourself – Shadow Work Integration and Coming Home to Your True Self

In this deeply personal and transformative episode of The CAIM Circle Podcast, Jessa invites you into the sacred space of reparenting—the heart of shadow work integration and the key to coming home to your truest Self.

After years of unraveling her conditioning and rediscovering her voice through memoir writing, Jessa found herself at a crossroads—aware of her programming, but unsure how to move forward. What followed was an unexpected, soul-healing journey that began in the back of a van on Martha’s Vineyard and unfolded into a profound process of self-love, forgiveness, and reconnection.

Through story, psychology, and spiritual wisdom, Jessa explores what it really means to reparent yourself—to meet the wounded parts of you with compassion, to rewrite your internal narratives, and to embody the calm, compassionate presence of your capital “S” Self.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
✨ The difference between shadow work and shadow work integration
✨ How to access your witness consciousness—the part of you that is never broken, never lost
✨ How Internal Family Systems (IFS) and yogic philosophy align in understanding our inner parts
✨ Why self-awareness isn’t enough—healing happens through compassionate action
✨ Five practical reparenting practices to begin your own integration journey

Jessa also shares her own reparenting rituals—holding younger versions of herself, speaking to them with love, and helping them release the shame and fear they’d carried for decades. These moments, tender and raw, reveal what it looks like to unburden your inner child and reclaim your true essence.

This is not just a story about healing—it’s a roadmap for anyone ready to stop performing, stop proving, and finally belong to themselves again.

You’ll walk away with tangible practices, profound insight, and the reminder that you don’t need a van or a month away to begin this work. You just need your willingness, your presence, and your love.

Because reparenting isn’t about fixing yourself—it’s about remembering that you were never broken.

So take a deep breath, draw your CAIM, and step into this circle of safety and self-discovery. You’re safe here. You’re seen here. And you’re not alone.
