In this episode, I talk with Thomas Moore, a Jungian psychotherapist and author of Dark Nights of the Soul, the New York Times bestseller Care of the Soul, and 22 more books about bringing soul to personal life and culture, deepening spirituality, humanising medicine and finding meaningful work. His work also infuses mythology, depth psychology and the arts, emphasising the importance of images and imagination.

In this conversation, we explore Thomas’s enthralling metamorphosis from monk and musician, to university professor, to psychotherapist, and finally to meteoric bestselling author. He also illuminates the ‘Dark Night’ aspect of the Hero’s Journey and shares wisdom for finding what Jung called, ‘The Gold in the Dark’.

In this episode, Sarah Rozenthuler - purpose-led business pioneer and author of Powered by Purpose - shares her colourful story of breaking away from the UK corporate world in her early 20s and becoming an itinerant street circus performer in Spain. After four tough but exhilarating years juggling fire and knives across Spain’s vibrant fiesta trail, Sarah returned to the UK and integrated these skills into the corporate arena, especially the art of engaging, educating and entertaining people, which she has been doing ever since as a chartered psychologist and leadership consultant advising business leaders across the world. Also explored in this conversation are the current global shift towards purpose-led business and a fairer and greener economy; the art of living in the flow; and The Heroine’s Journey, bringing a feminine perspective on this archetypal transformation process. I hope you enjoy the journey!

The guest for this launch episode of Follow Your Blissters is Satish Kumar, the former monk, environmentalist and legendary peace activist. Satish is celebrated worldwide for the remarkable two and a half year peace pilgrimage he walked from India to the USA (and onto Japan) in the early Sixties, without spending any money and eating only vegetarian food.  In this episode, we retrace the steps of this extraordinary voyage Satish made while just in his mid twenties, facing extreme dangers and hardships along the way - including being held up at gunpoint twice - to take a stand for world peace and nuclear disarmament. Satish’s walk is a classic example of The Hero’s Journey with all its trials, tribulations, inner transformation, and bringing back a powerful boon to share – his story and its assimilated lessons for peace. Enjoy the journey!
