Refusal of Return – Step 12 of Joseph Campbell’s Hero’s Journey

Joseph Campbell’s Hero’s Journey #7: Meeting With the Goddess

Well, Dear Listeners, I have to admit that this particular step of the Hero’s Journey had me confused for a while. I had no idea where to start with it and I didn’t understand what it was about. After a lot of thinking and studying and watching and listening, I figured out at least a […]
