Send us Fan Mail“You must give up the life you planned in order to have the life that is waiting for you.”-- Joseph CampbellIn this episode we explore the mythic theme of leaving home as a central part of answering the call to transformation. Drawing from myths such as Inanna’s Descent, Valemon the White Bear King, Psyche and Eros, and The Odyssey, we reflect on the symbolic and literal meanings of “home,” and how leaving it often initiates deep personal change.Support the showEmail Catherine at [email protected] a positive review on apple podcasts!
