In this episode, I return to the book Awakening The Heroes Within, Twelve Archetypes To Help Us Find Ourselves & Transform Our World by Carol S. Pearson, & thoroughly reflect on themes of the Destroyer archetype in my life & introduce the archetype of the Creator, saving deeper reflections on the Creator for a future episode. DISCLAIMER: Suicidal Ideation is mentioned early on in this episode. It's hard to talk about the Destroyer archetype without talking about S.I. If you're particularly sensitive to this content at the moment, please listen to it another time. That being said, this episode may actually be hopeful for those struggling with rock-bottoms or any kind of existential search for meaning after a loss or big life change. The archetype of the Destroyer & learning to embody and practice its healthier aspects holds a lot of wisdom for transforming grief into posttraumatic growth! I hope you get something out of it! Please let me know what your thoughts are by sending me an email & if you enjoyed this episode, give it a good rating and a share! Stay resilient & self-reflective! (To help you gain awareness around these archetypes, there are some journal & Daydream/Art prompts at the end of each archetypal discussion😉🙂). Stay curious & beautiful! 💓
