Listen to the show:
Today on Talk with Francesca, WWZN REVOLUTION BOSTON I interviewed two different guests who have lived extraordinary lives…..on the darker side. Kevin Weeks, co-author “Where’s Whitey” and ex right hand man to Whitey Bulger and Melissa Febos whose Memoir WhipSmart is a story about Melissa’s life while in college working as a dominatrix in New York City. Two entirely different human beings yet they both have embraced their dark side.
In accepting responsibility for all of our life experiences, good and bad is to be whole. When we are not afraid of embracing our dark side, not trying to be someone else, we don’t abandon who we really are. Owning your dark side makes you grounded and unshakable. It’s part of you, your creation and for whatever reason it served you somehow or maybe still does. Own it. It’s not something outside of you but IS you. Acknowledge it. There is wisdom in the experience of owning it. Talk to that old friend compassionately. The best part of embracing our dark side, is then we can be accepting of others. Welcome Home Dark Side.
