Inner Work 251: Shattering the illusion of self-lack

Inner Work 251: Shattering the illusion of self-lack

Author: Josephine Hardman, PhD June 28, 2025 Duration: 25:23

Have you "bought" into the idea of self-lack?

We've all been conditioned, taught, or shown by others (consciously or unconsciously) to believe that we're lacking in some way.

This can affect how we see ourselves, our self-perception, and what we believe we're capable of doing, having, and being now.

Self-lack refers to the belief or idea that we're somehow not (good) enough, deficient, flawed, or missing something important within ourselves.

BUT, at the end of the day... self-lack is just that: an idea. Nothing more. 

In this episode of INNER WORK, we'll talk about how to begin dismantling and letting go of this false idea - or illusion - of self-lack, so you can show up as your Whole, Authentic, Full Self in this lifetime.

I hope something here is useful for you today!
