  • What does it mean to “call in the one”? 
  • Who really is the one we want to call in during this lifetime? 
  • Junie talks about her belief that we may have more than one soulmate, and that people are in our lives for a season and reason to teach us about ourselves. 
  • Junie talks about what a shadow self is and how we can access it if it’s in the unconscious realm. 
  • How our shadow self can continue to sabotage deep connection and love if we don’t tend to it and bring it into the light. 
  • More on Junie’s work to help you learn to fill your cup up and find more love connection, along with how to work with Sherry and Carla on overcoming codependency, dating, break-ups, healing from toxic relationships, and gaining confidence.
