What if the answer to shifting moments of crisis into turning points of expansion and opportunity was looking inward?

 Based on the work of Maureen Murdoch, Victoria Lynn Schmidt, Joseph Campbell and others, the Archetypical Heroine’s Journey outlines the universal quest for self-discovery; interdependence; and contribution from a space of intuition and profound acceptance. Like the phoenix that rises from the ashes, we travel to the depths of our souls to reclaim our inner power. Using the narrative and symbolic map of THJ, this podcast explores some of the most important themes of what it means to be human with eight incredible guests, in a first season of 12 episodes (6 in Spanish and 6 English). Second season coming June 7th 2024.
