Embrace Your Own Shadow With Chauncey McGlathery
Episode 125
Monday, 12 October, 2026

What if the parts of ourselves we’ve been taught to hide are actually the parts that hold some of our greatest wisdom, authenticity, and freedom? In this episode of Evolve: Reinventing Leadership, Building Freedom Cultures, Yvette Bethel sits down with leadership coach, educator, and author Chauncey McGlathery to explore the concept of the shadow, the parts of ourselves we suppress, conceal, or leave behind in order to succeed. Together, they unpack what it means to embrace rather than eliminate our shadow, how code-switching and constructed identities can disconnect us from who we truly are, and why doing this deeper work can transform the way we lead, work, and live. This is a conversation about shadows, self-awareness, and the freedom that comes when we stop selling out who we are to become who we think we need to be.
