Agnieszka Drabek-Prime weaves the cyclical wisdom of goddess archetypes into a rich map for navigating life’s transitions — from menstruation to motherhood, through perimenopause and beyond. 

Her new book, Dancing With Goddesses: An Archetypal Journey Through The Menstrual Cycle, offers women a way to embrace their natural rhythms and seasons with reverence.

The book arrived in a single, luminous moment of inspiration while Agnieszka was camping — a fully-formed vision blending her work as a doula, womb medicine woman, and celebrant with deep archetypal goddess wisdom.

In our conversation, we explore:
• How goddess archetypes can act as mirrors for women’s lived experiences
• A five-season approach to understanding the menstrual cycle
• Why each woman’s cycle has its own unique nature and rhythm
• How life transitions can be fertile ground for growth and transformation
• The wisdom encoded in women’s bodies and experiences
• Agnieszka’s personal perimenopause journey
• The healing power of being heard without judgment

You can find Agnieszka at primetherapy.co.uk on Instagram and Substack, and her book is available at all good bookshops and Amazon.
