The Hidden Way

When Words Fall Short: A Map for the Nervous System & Soul


Listen Later

Have you ever struggled to put words to what you’re feeling?

In this episode of The Hidden Way, Rudi explores why symbols, metaphors, and stories reach us so deeply—helping us name and navigate the galaxies within.

Along the way, she grounds this in the biology of the nervous system, showing how our bodies and brains are wired to process meaning through image and story as much as through words.

From mermaids and myth to beetles and constellations, discover how the images you’ve always been drawn to hold hidden clues about who you are and what you’re seeking.

This is an invitation to see your inner life not as chaos to control, but as a landscape of meaning waiting to be explored.
