The Heroine’s Journey is the new direction and labour-of-love for Think Spiritual. It is the recognition of the journey of the Feminine (not females, The Feminine in ALL of us). Please join me for this new journey and exploration of the other half of the Story.
The Faery Godmother – The Heroine’s Journey: Step 4
It took me a while to figure it out and get it written, but Step 4 of my Heroine’s Journey model is finally here! Be careful when making deals with the Fae!

It seems that the first steps of any Journey are the most difficult – especially if we didn’t want to take it in the first place. And even if we did want to take it, it doesn’t mean that we’re going to have an easy time leaving our “Perfect” world behind. Be your own Heroine! […]

We are all born into the “Perfect” World of the Feminine, but we have to mature to understand that it’s most likely not perfect. Perfection can’t exist. Anything truly perfect would be stagnate. We need change. We need growth. A good Heroine will see this and strive for change. When I began Think Spiritual Podcasts […]

The most important detail I can emphasize as we dive into the first episode of this series is that the Heroine’s Journey is not the opposite of nor is it in opposition to the Hero’s Journey. In human societies we often forget that Masculinity and Femininity are complementary and this is how I want to […]
