Marisa reads an excerpt from her 2020 book, The Sovereignty Knot, in which she imagines three Irish goddesses, Brigid, the Morrígan, and the Cailleach all walk into a bar and have a chat about what women really want.

After the story, Marisa explores:

• She closes this season of KnotWork Storytelling as she opened it: with a solo episode and her own story that is inspired by Irish lore, but is entirely her own invention.
• The origins of the Celtic Sovereignty Goddess and the meaning of Sovereignty in Irish and Celtic culture. It’s not about toxic individualism or nationalism!
• The tendency we have to “orphan” our creative work and move on to the next project too quickly
• The question “what do women want” is drawn from the Dame Ragnell story from Arthurian legend. You’ll find a retelling of the story in The Sovereignty Knot.
• Why, in these difficult times, we need mythology and goddesses like these more than ever.
