Is it about time you embrace your dark side? Bill Oberst Jr. is an American actor who achieved a ton of awards for his brilliant (and scary) work in horror and cult films. During our conversation, I was most intrigued by Bill’s kindness and sensitivity. It’s really interesting to hear him share about the challenges while playing in horror movies, especially as an empath who feels everything so very deeply. It requires a very empathic disposition, since you have to surrender to the darkness -your own darkness- to play the role, and how important it is each time to release this afterwards in order to not lose yourself in the parts you play. Bill talks about embracing the darkness inside yourself in order to be happy, because we all have a dark side, and instead of shaming it and hiding it, how can you accept this part of yourself? For example, during this episode, Bill shares how hard he struggled with accepting his own body, and how he can now appreciate it and even use it as an object of fear in his acting. While rewatching this interview, I lost myself all over again in Bill’s beautiful soul, which shines through his eyes. Can you see it too? Immerse yourself in his wise and pure energy, and do let us know which dark side of you needs some TLC, and maybe can even be an asset!
