Mean Girls: Cady Heron's Journey through the Yonic Model of the SelfIn this "fetching" FREE episode, we dive into Cady ("Katie") Heron's journey of self-actualization in the classic 2004 film Mean Girls. I'll discuss the challenges of "girl world" that Cady must navigate, which reflect women's difficulty navigating their own journeys of self-actualization in our modern world. I'll also discuss how the characters Regina and Janis represent Cady's inner light and dark feminine aspects and how she must learn to reconcile what I refer to as the goddess-witch spectrum.Get in, loser, we're learning how to embrace the power of the feminine and our authentic selves!
