In the face of crumbling structures and collapsing old paradigms, what new myths are we living, telling, and weaving? How is the mystic's journey different from the hero's or the heroine's? How do we tell transformational stories that transmit our consciousness?
In the email exchange leading up to our conversation, my guest Kristina Marie wrote "The Hero is Dead."
That sentence stopped me in my tracks. It's a suspicion I've had for a while, but maybe there's still a part of me that doesn't want it to be true. "What do you mean? But I love my hero's journey stories!" that part protested.
In the episode, Kristina and I dove straight into this topic.
We discussed:
It's a profound conversation and my mind was blown with epiphany after epiphany throughout.
Here's Kristina's bio:
For more than a decade, I worked as a journalist and an editor at top national magazines, including Travel + Leisure and T magazine at the New York Times.
Since launching Voyages of the Spirit nine years ago, I’ve combined my publishing skills, intuitive gifts, and creative wisdom to mentor writers, leaders, visionaries, mystics, and storytellers.
I guide my clients in structuring their transformational stories and birthing their books, awakening their creative genius, discovering their personal mythology, and building an ecosystem for their life’s work.
