A musing on how easily we may give our authority over to people and institutions that meet certain masculine metrics. And why we should look within to ourselves for that authority instead.
What's the value in understanding and observing archetypes without literalizing them? How can these symbols and patterns provide us deeper insight into ourselves and help us #feedthefeminine by embracing our yearning for spirit rather than repressing it through material worship?
On this episode, dedicated to my mentor and friend Bruce Avery, I share how my personal experiences of grief and the wisdom of poets and psychologists alike have led me to understand the meaning of mourning.

A more objective truth is that we can support each other but the work to quell our upset and evolve is ours alone. And boundaries – a trait of the masculine light – is where that healthy separation begins.

Let's talk about empathy: highly sensitive empathic attunement, those who have no empathy at all, empathy's impact on co-dependency, empathy through the feminine/masculine framework, and how it can feel impossible to manage empathy in times of global suffering.
