What's Haunting You

Concluding with the last four (Greek) words for love.

The second episode will focus on the more romantic forms of love including, Ludus, Eros, Mania, and Pragma. Let’s explore how these can all show up in different types of relationships and how relationships can develop different forms of love.

I wanted to conclude by talking about how I’ve experienced all these different forms of love and how the best relationship I’ve ever had has all of the healthy forms of love and what that looks like to me from my experience(s).

I’d love to hear any questions, comments, examples from your own life, or future topic ideas.

Any holiday that revolves around gratitude has my attention and love is a favorite topic of mine so for this bonus episode I just want to briefly share the three factors that likely played into the creation of Valentine’s Day. Plus, this bonus episode feels like a nice filling to the sandwich of my love episodes right now, with the second part of “The Meanings of Love” coming out at the end of the month.

Learning the history of something we feel programmed to celebrate helps me appreciate it more while also feeling more empowered to celebrate it in the way I want to and not the way I’m told to. Personally, I deeply respect the choices of St. Valentine and I’m excited about the upcoming Spring season but can leave the rest.

For example, I didn’t realize St. Valentine was the patron saint of more than love before doing research on this episode!

**Since February is a month of purification and love and with all that’s going on in the world, I wanted to begin season two with a focus on the different Greek and Latin words for love. I have found it easier to understand love when I can break them down into different types and apparently, psychology is doing this more and more as well.

There are eight main forms of love that I’m going to focus on in the first two episodes of this season. What each one is when it’s healthy and what the unhealthy version looks like.

**Edit: This first episode covers the meaning along with the healthy and unhealth expressions of Philautia, Agape, Storge, and Philia and how they shape our early life as well as how that impacts us as adults.

I hope you can appreciate why understanding how love operates for each of us is an important topic, especially right now. I’d love to hear any questions, comments, examples from your own life, or future topic ideas.

I was excited to use Halloween as an excuse to talk about Alewives and how they likely became the blueprint to the scary witch trope we know today. I share a bit of a medieval poem used to disparage a female brew master at the beginning just for fun but you can skip that and go to 4:12 for the podcast.

Happy Halloween!

We're getting deeper into the darkness now. With that in mind I wanted to briefly share a paranormal experience I had and what it taught me. I'm hoping my message comes across in the spirit of which it's conveyed. We all have our place in the world and areas in which we excel but it doesn't mean "gifts" are exclusive.

I will be taking the rest of the year off for the holidays but will post bonus episodes as I'm able. Please like and subscribe to watch or listen as I'm able to post them. Then in 2026 I'll have a more consistent schedule now that I know more about what I want to create here.

Thank you!! ⁠Ms. Micah⁠

Expanding on the previous episode where we discussed liminal spaces, in this episode we look at how different cultures viewed the journey of death as well as transitions in life. How did their beliefs shape our world now? Is there anything we can still learn from them?

An introduction and invitation to my podcast, "What's Haunting You?".

Only recently did I realize what liminal spaces were when I was going through a liminal space myself. Liminal spaces can change who you are physically, psychologically, and spiritually so understanding when you're experiencing a liminal space and what to expect can make this time so much easier.

We tend to forget what we're capable of and unfortunately, we often forget our strength and power when we need to remember it most.

In this episode we explore the basics of what happens to our brain and body when in different emotional states, especially what fear does to us over time.
