Send Catherine a text MessageSpecial episode with guest singer-composer Kelli Scarr!Scarr released her new album Greater Mysteries, a musical journey through the spiraling cycle of transformation, last month. The Sumerian myth of Inanna is one of the touchstones in this beautiful work, and I'm grateful to Kelli for taking the time to talk with me about the making of the album, her engagement with Inanna, and our collective transformation."What I hope that this album does is brings solace and inspiration, and holds people's hands through their ears to say it's worth the risk. It's worth the risk of dying in all of its forms. Because even when what is on the other side isn't what you thought it was going to be, it's so much better."-- Kelli ScarrThanks for listening and keep the mystery in your life alive...Support the showEmail Catherine at drcsvehla@mythicmojo.comPost a positive review on apple podcasts!

Song: Get Up Music by: Barbara McAfee Additional vocals by: Lia Falls   Notes: Barbara McAfee describes herself as "A nice Minnesota girl -- I like things that work!" -- and in her framework of the Full Voice, she has shaped the teachings of skilled choir leaders and the Roy Hart vocal work, as well as her own discovery of her voice into just that -- a framework that works! She says, “I've never believed more in the need for people to find their own voice…” and observes the deep courage of people coming to community sings for the first time after vocal wounding. The work of Angeles Arrien inspired Barbara in her own journey, and this song pulls in the grittiness and determination needed to keep waking up. Barbara adds a surprise bonus song in the middle of the episode -- "May It Go Easy As You Go" -- as we talk about singing as a way of saying what's hard to say. So much more in this conversation -- "twisting on a meathook", scheduling "workity-work" things, doing laundry before listening to the muse -- enjoy Barbara's Full Voice, and let it help you find yours!   Songwriter Info: Barbara lives on the wild and scenic St Croix River about an hour from Minneapolis/St Paul. She is a master voice coach, songwriter, song leader, hospice choir director, long distance swimmer, poet, and author of Full Voice. She feels so lucky to be alive on planet Earth.   Sharing Info: The song is free to share in oral tradition groups, but please contact Barbara for recording and/or performing permission.   Song Learning Time Stamps: Start time of teaching: 00:05:43 Start time of bonus song: 00:47:50 Start time of reprise: 01:03:55   Links: Barbara's website: www.barbaramcafee.com  Barbara's community singing page: https://www.barbaramcafee.com/community-singing.html  Barbara's Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/barbaramcafee Barbara's first TEDx talk about Full Voice: https://youtu.be/Ze763kgrWGg?si=hueWlQGYCqtDrarr Lia Falls: https://soundcloud.com/user-860092984  Diana Ross: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diana_Ross  Full Voice: https://books.google.com/books?id=pETKks1jdKUC  Saule Ryan/Roy Hart Centre: https://roy-hart-theatre.com/teachers/saule-ryan/  Rhiannon: https://rhiannonmusic.com/  Daniel Nelson: https://www.facebook.com/singingfortheearth/  Jenna Lindbo: https://music.apple.com/us/artist/jenna-lindbo/395790602  The story of Inanna: https://tamedwild.com/a/blog/storytime-inanna-descent-into-the-underworld  Te Martin: https://soundcloud.com/temartinmusic  Lyndsey Scott: https://www.lyndseyscott.earth/  Sarina Partridge: https://sarinapartridge.com/  Heidi Wilson: https://heidiannwilson.com/  Laurence Cole: https://www.laurencecole.com/  Melanie DeMore: https://melaniedemore.com/  Joni Mitchell's Blue album: https://open.spotify.com/album/1vz94WpXDVYIEGja8cjFNa  Jon Batiste: https://www.jonbatiste.com/  Jacob Collier: https://www.jacobcollier.com/    Nuts & Bolts: 2:2, minor, 4.5 layers   Join this community of people who love to use song to help navigate life?

It is a deep and profound honor to welcome my teacher, Shannon Port, onto the podcast, who shares generously with us about the path of the true Divine Feminine. This episode is not to be missed and is a potent stream specifically for our listeners.In our conversation, Shannon shares how she came into this work from an early age, the unfolding of her life's work and magnum opus, and how this path has been one of leaning way in to relationships, love, heartbreak, and living and learning all of it.She makes important distinctions between the feminine and masculine spiritual paths (honoring all of it), and brings this work squarely back to relationships of the heart.Shannon Port has been teaching and sharing with the world a profound body of Feminine Archetypal Wisdom for the past two decades through the Divine Feminine Wisdom Teachings in Light Body Yoga and Light Body Woman. Art of the Feminine is a Cosmic Feminine Stream received by a true Female Initiate who has been working in the frequency of the Goddess since birth. Shannon has lived these Mysteries and has traveled the deep feminine path of Goddess Initiation, working closely with the Divine Feminine Spiritual Hierarchies, to restore and regenerate The Inner Mysteries of Divine Love on Earth. Through her heart and her Word, she shares this transmission as her soul's mission. The work here has been lived, tasted and fully integrated and digested. It is beyond sacred and holds the Divine Feminine Impulse for the coming Age of Venus and The Goddess Epoch.In this episode, Shannon covers:- the trajectory of her life's work since childhood- her embodied initiations, and the path of the solar feminine- why spiritual growth is about alchemy, not bypassing - especially within love and sexuality- why the feminine mysteries have been left out and are a critical missing piece- how the woman's heart is the mothership that births, sustains, and redeems life- why Shannon's work is an expression of a living lineage—not theory, but transmission through embodimentI can't wait for you to listen.

Synopsis: Sargon of Akkad forges the world's first Empire. “After Enlil's baleful glare Had slain Kish like the Bull of Heaven, Had slaughtered house and land of Uruk in the dust,      like that monster bull, And Enlil had then and there given Sargon, king of Agade, Lordship of Uruk, kingship of Kish, From the lowlands to the upper regions, Then did holy Inanna busy herself to build Agade, the temple city, as her sublime dwelling, In Ulmash let her throne be set.” – The curse of Agade Map of SW Eurasia: https://audio.ancientworldpodcast.com/A5_Map.png Map of the Akkadian Empire (by Simeon Netchev, World History Encyclopedia): https://www.worldhistory.org/uploads/images/15457.png?v=1748640186-0 Episode Images: https://www.flickr.com/photos/75506172@N07/albums/72177720326959608/ References and Further Reading: https://audio.ancientworldpodcast.com/A5_References.pdf Please contact advertising@airwavemedia.com if you would like to advertise on this podcast.

In this episode, we go deeper into the ancient feminine power they tried to bury.Before patriarchy rewrote the narrative, women were seen as sacred. Goddesses like Inanna, Hathor, Lilith, Aphrodite, Oshun, and Shakti weren't just symbols, they represented fertility, sensuality, leadership, wisdom, and divine authority. But over time, their stories were distorted or erased altogether.This episode is a reminder that your power has ancient roots. We're not reclaiming anything new, we're remembering what they tried to make us forget.

Send Catherine a text Message“The Church says: the body is a sin.Science says: the body is a machine.Advertising says: The body is a business.The Body says: I am a fiesta.”― Eduardo Galeano, from Walking Words In this episode I tell the second part of Inanna's story, the courtship and marriage between Inanna and her honey man, the shepherd Dumuzi. Ripe in every sense, Inanna engages in a passionate and symbolic union that celebrates physical desire, renews the life cycles of nature, and expresses the creativity  and eros of the cosmos. Her myth illuminates the sacredness of embodied experience and the transformative power of creative union, and challenges traditional dichotomies between spirit and matter.  Inanna invites us to reconsider the sacred through the lens of wholeness, integration, and reverence for life in all its forms.Support the showEmail Catherine at drcsvehla@mythicmojo.comPost a positive review on apple podcasts!

In this episode of Gatherings, we welcome writer and mythic guide Carly Mountain, author of Descent and Rising. Together, we explore the ancient Sumerian myth of Inanna, a powerful narrative of descent, embodiment, and feminine transformation. Carly shares how the myth mirrored her own personal journey and why it continues to speak to modern women facing burnout, identity shifts, or creative rebirth. We explore the myth's cultural resurgence, its symbolic contrast to artificial intelligence, and its call to reclaim erotic intelligence, surrender, and embodied wisdom. Carly reframes surrender not as weakness but as the courage to meet what's real—and sees descent not as failure, but as the doorway to collective healing. For those navigating inner thresholds, this episode may serve as both map and medicine. For more information about Carly's book and workshops: Writer, Psychotherapist and Women's Initiatory Guide.

Enheduanna was a high priestess, poet, and princess of ancient Mesopotamia. She is widely considered the world’s first known author by name. Her deeply personal hymns and poems, many dedicated to the goddess Inanna, mark the first time an author writes using the pronoun I. For Further Reading: World History: Enheduanna The Earliest Known Author Was a Woman from Mesopotamia The World’s First Named Author Was a Woman This month, we’re talking about Word Weavers — people who coined terms, popularized words, and even created entirely new languages. These activists, writers, artists, and scholars used language to shape ideas and give voice to experiences that once had no name. History classes can get a bad rap, and sometimes for good reason. When we were students, we couldn’t help wondering... where were all the ladies at? Why were so many incredible stories missing from the typical curriculum? Enter, Womanica. On this Wonder Media Network podcast we explore the lives of inspiring women in history you may not know about, but definitely should. Every weekday, listeners explore the trials, tragedies, and triumphs of groundbreaking women throughout history who have dramatically shaped the world around us. In each 5 minute episode, we’ll dive into the story behind one woman listeners may or may not know–but definitely should. These diverse women from across space and time are grouped into easily accessible and engaging monthly themes like Educators, Villains, Indigenous Storytellers, Activists, and many more. Womanica is hosted by WMN co-founder and award-winning journalist Jenny Kaplan. The bite-sized episodes pack painstakingly researched content into fun, entertaining, and addictive daily adventures.

While Truth Fairy is away, Dr. T hosts this episode solo, welcoming Scott Hill, author of “Confrontation with the Unconscious: Jungian Depth Psychology and Psychedelic Experience”, who completed his PhD with a dissertation titled ‘Building a Jungian Framework for Understanding Psychedelic Induced Psychotic States' at the California Institute of Integral Studies. Dr. Hill shares his early transformative encounters with LSD in 1967, which, though initially ecstatic, devolved into psychologically traumatic events. These experiences led him on a lifelong journey of self-exploration, academic inquiry, and healing.  Scott shares his journey very openly with Dr. T and they discuss how Scott's return to academia in Cailfornia, studying under Stan Grof and Ralph Metzner, deepened his understanding of his own experiences. They examine how Jung's concepts of the collective unconscious and archetypes reflect in intense psychedelic states. Scott details how key reading, Holotropic Breathwork, a medicine circle. and an MDMA-assisted therapy session at Burning Man, and MDMA-assisted therapy all helped heal his ongoing flashbacks.  Dr. T and Scott Hill share a deep and revelatory conversation, at the end of which Scott expresses gratitude for the path he was forced onto in spite of how painfully it began. He describes writing and academic research as transformative tools and identifies scholarship as a spiritual practice in its own right. “Confrontation with the Unconscious: Jungian Depth Psychology and Psychedelic Experience”, Dr. Hill's book, is now foundational in psychedelic psychotherapy circles, and his insights are key to understanding much about psychedelic psychology. “As I read about the myths of Gilgamesh, Inanna,, Job and Christ, I was struck by the resonance between passages in those myths and my difficult psychedelic experiences. Given the Jungian view that myths are expressions of the archetypal unconscious, and given the resonance I experienced reading those myths, I started to wonder whether my terrifying trips, and perhaps those of others, might be understood, in Jung's words, as experiences of an archetypal nature.” - Scott Hill About Scott Hill:Scott J. Hill, Ph.D., lives in Sweden, where he conducts scholarly research on the intersection between psychedelic studies and Jungian psychology. He holds degrees in psychology from the University of Minnesota and in philosophy and religion from the California Institute of Integral Studies.Book: “Confrontation with the Unconscious: Jungian Depth Psychology and Psychedelic Experience” by Scott J.

Send Catherine a text MessageIn the first days, in the very first days, everything needed was brought into being and the goddess Inanna, Queen of Heaven and Earth, took her place in the center of the Sumerian pantheon. This myth was recorded at the beginning of history and describes a pivotal time in human civilization. We're reckoning with the developments of this time, today. Inanna's myth can help us find a place-- as individuals, communities, and countries-- in the transformation that's currently underway.

In this soul-stirring episode, we journey beyond the Easter we know today and into the ancient, feminine roots. Long before chocolate eggs and Sunday services, cultures around the world honored the Earth's reawakening in alignment with Goddess traditions - Eostre, Ishtar, Inanna, and hundreds of others - who embodied life itself, renewal, fertility, the sacred power of the body, and the great turning of the seasons.We'll explore the mythic origins of Easter, before Christianity, the rise and fall of Goddess Cultures, the symbolic significance of Spring, underworld journeys and how they show up in our lives, as well as what it means to reclaim the sacred feminine in a modern world.This episode is both a remembrance and a reclamation, a call to akaen the goddess that lives within all of us and listen for the song of the Earth as she rises again into a new cycle of life and fertility.In this episode you'll hear:00:22 - Introduction 03:15 - Grounding Practice04:32 - A Peek Into Ancient Goddess Cultures 07:07 - Every Woman Carries The Echoes of the Goddess07:39 - Feminine Rites of Passage08:23 - The Destruction of Goddess Traditions11:35 - Christianity's Co-Opting of Ancient Celebrations 12:45 - Why Eggs + Bunnies Represent Easter14:03 - What Easter Was Really About15:25 - The Goddesses of Rebirth: Ishtar, Oestre, Inanna, Persephone, and More17:52 - Death and Rebirth Stories Have Always Been A Part of Human Consciousness18:19 - The Story of Inanna's Descent Into The Underworld27:51 - The Three Stages of a Rite of Passage and How They Show Up In Our Lives As Women and Mothers31:19 - Rites of Passage as a Part of Female Biology and How Our Feminine Cycles Mirror The Cycles of Nature33:27 - The Ancient Symbols of Easter: Eggs, Hares, Water, + Fire40:06 - May We Remember: A Wish For Us All at the Turning of Spring40:50 - Closing Meditation: Awakening The Goddess Within Send me a text!

This week on MYTH, we're returning to the dawn of time for a tale from the very first city. You'll learn that you shouldn't trust a bad gardener, that cities make great hiding places, and that turning the seas to blood is a favorite pastime of pissed off deities. Then, in Gods and Monsters, the god of pestilence is going to risk a zombie apocalypse for a one night stand. Source: Mesopotamian Mythology

Christos Mysteries, Venus Codes & the Path of Devotional Rebirth Resurrection is not a return. It is a transformation. A transfiguration of your essence. A becoming. And in this episode, we walk the winding spiral of that sacred path—through myth, mystery, and the marrow of your own remembering. As resurrection codes light the sky and soil, we explore Christos consciousness beyond dogma, the Venusian rebirth that asks us to lead with fierce compassion, and the myths that mirror our modern-day healer's path—Inanna, Isis, and the ever-evolving Earth herself. In this episode, you'll receive:  A soul-rooted exploration of resurrection as the healer's path  What Venus' journey reveals about sacred will, spiritual leadership, and love with boundaries  A breakdown of Christos mysteries through esoteric + anthroposophical lenses  The healer's truth: Why you don't need to be “fully healed” to be fully effective  Resurrection stories of Inanna, Isis, and Jesus as mirrors for your own evolution  The spiritual significance of Venus + Earth's sacred geometry  How Venus initiates the heart as a clairvoyant organ of perception  Prompts for your own resurrection and embodiment of soul gifts Catch the replay of The Healer's Compass

She is also the founder of Vera Jean Music, a pioneering record label dedicated to championing the talents of women artists over the age of 40.On May 12, 2025, she unveils Greater Mysteries, an immersive album and performance experience inspired by the ancient myth of Inanna. Born from a 2022 artist residency in Crete, and recorded in Iceland, the album invites listeners to connect with their own cycles of transformation. Transcendent piano and airy woodwinds intertwine with Scarr's otherworldly voice and the earthy pulse of the rhythm section, alongside contributions from an array of surprise musicians—creating a soundscape steeped in myth and mystery.Raised in Northern California, Scarr's musical journey began in church, eventually leading her to Berklee College of Music before settling in New York City. Over the years, she has woven her way through an eclectic range of projects, from fronting the bands Moonraker and Salt & Samovar to a significant collaboration writing, recording, and touring with Moby. Her artistry extends into film scoring, where her emotive and organic approach—favoring live musicians and improvisation—has set her apart. She earned an Emmy nomination for her score to the HBO documentary In A Dream (2008) and has composed music for dozens of films, TV shows, and commercials. Notable projects include the documentaries Advanced Style and Far Western, and the forthcoming After All (2025), for which she composed the score and contributed six original songs.As a solo artist, Scarr has released three albums—Piece (2010), Dangling Teeth (2012), and No Rush (2021)—establishing herself as a singular voice in atmospheric, deeply emotive songwriting. Her forthcoming fourth album, Greater Mysteries, marks a new creative chapter, offering music as an initiatory experience. The project will unfold through intimate preview concerts in the Hudson Valley, culminating in immersive cave performances this fall and beyond.Today we get to dive deep into Kelli's creative process in the making of Greater Mysteries from the seeds of inspiration that came from many sources such as Talk Talk by Spirit of Eden, Maureen Murdock's "The Heroine's Journey," and Dr. Catherine Svehla's mythical wisdom to the whisper from her psychic about Greece in her future. Kelli shares about the magic and mystery of her residency in Crete, how the voices of Odeya Nini and members of the Threshold Choir appeared to lend magic to the album, and we listen to three songs - "Knowing is the Call," "The Yes that Leads," and "Aphrodite" - as we meander through the myth of Inanna and how transformation happens to us..."she's not dying, she's flying free."Hudson Valley audiences will have an exclusive opportunity to preview Greater Mysteries before the rest of the world.

In episode 485 astrologer Elly Higgins joins the show to discuss the 8-year repetitions of Venus retrograde in Aries and how they tie into queer history over the past century. In this episode we start with the Venus retrograde in Aries of 1905, and then work our way forward in 8 year increments, discussing how important moments and turning points in queer history keep coinciding with this retrograde. In the process we ended up finding a bunch of repetitions, many of which give insight into the Venus retrograde that we are currently living through today. Elly is the host of Star Gays: The Queer Astrology Archives Podcast, and you can find more information here: https://ellyhiggins.com https://stargaysastrology.ghost.io This episode is available in audio and video versions below.

This podcast incorporates the Venus journey at the end of March 2025 and her conjunction with Neptune (the higher octave of Venus) and the Mars opposition with Pluto (the higher octave of Mars). I speculate in this video about how Ereshkigal, in the myth of Inanna, may be represented by the asteroid Persephone and, in my later, more recent video published in March 2025, by the asteroid Ceres. Let me know your thoughts on this! All of these points represent aspects of this split between Inanna and Ereshkigal and the division of the Great Goddess archetype.

In this podcast, Heather discusses the powerful shifts happening in these last few weeks of March and in particular the unique and extraordinary time in the Venus cycle that is guiding us into healing and transformation to move into higher consciousness. Corrections/clarifications: the oral tradition of the story of Inanna most likely dates back to 2500-3000 BCE, but the cuneiform texts discovered date closer to 2100-2000 BCE. Also, the image of the precessional cycle and Yuga cycle is an integration of Bibhu Dev Misra's research on the Yuga cycle and my research on the precessional cycle and is in my upcoming book.

“Voice is the most valued part of yoga. How you communicate and how you are received and heard as a student, as a teacher, as a divine human being. When your voice has not been heard, how does one open this channel? Yes, chanting for sure.

In this engaging conversation, Jane Garnett and Seana Zelazo explore the intersection of therapy, spirituality, and the human experience. They discuss the art of positive reframing, the significance of spiritual identity, and the profound lessons learned from hospice work. Seana shares her unique perspective on death and love, emphasizing the importance of sharing love in every moment and viewing life as a training ground for spiritual growth. The conversation delves into the idea that our wounds do not define us and that there is a greater, compassionate reality beyond our personal stories. In this conversation, Jane Garnett and Seana Zelazo explore the themes of childhood wounds, the importance of self-repair, and the role of divine feminine archetypes in personal growth. They discuss the goddess Inanna and her significance in connecting with nature and spirituality. The dialogue emphasizes the importance of devotion, the cultivation of relationships with the world, and finding personal access points to spirituality. The conversation concludes with reflections on wishes for their work and the essence of peace in their hearts. takeaways We are contemporary inclusive therapists focusing on the healing art of therapy. Positive reframing can transform problems into opportunities for growth. Spiritual identity shapes our understanding of the world. Childhood experiences can profoundly influence our spiritual journey. Working in hospice reveals the sacredness of the dying process. Love is the essence of our existence and the key to peace. The earth is a unique training ground for spiritual development. We can learn to see beyond our wounds and traumas. There is a larger, compassionate reality that transcends our personal stories. Sharing love in every moment is what truly matters. Childhood wounds often create self-defensive stories. Self-love is important, but not the only solution. Divine feminine archetypes can provide nourishment. Connection with the goddess enhances relationality. Devotion to nature fosters a deeper relationship with the world. Spirituality can be uniquely defined by each individual. Devotional practices cultivate reciprocity and connection. Acts of love can transform everyday experiences. Compassion and judgment cannot coexist in the heart. Finding peace is essential for a fulfilling life. titles Healing Childhood Wounds Through Spirituality The Power of Divine Feminine Archetypes Inanna: A Pathway to Connection and Love Devotion: A Journey into Nature and Self Personal Access Points to Spiritual Growth Sound Bites "Death is just like changing clothes."

We welcome back Professor Michael York to discuss Canaanite Gods. This includes the Israelites, Akkadians, Babylonians, and others. Due to proximity, we venture a bit into Sumeria, Egypt, Vedic India and beyond. We even touch upon Hittites, Minoans and Sea Peoples. But it's mostly Yahweh versus Ba'al with a dash of Inanna and Ashura, and other easy to pronounce names. Along the way we discuss soime recurring themes like evil baby eating Gods to matriarchal godheads versus patriarchal godheads. Somewhere along the line, Margorie Taylor Green came up. Oh my! Anyway, you don't want to miss this regional Gods discussion, which had earlier roots and ramifications that continue today.And I wasn't crazy about AI and translation.

In Garden Inventories: Reflections on Land, Place and Belonging (Wolsak and Wynn, 2023), author Mariam Pirbhai looks carefully at the pocket of land she has called home in Southern Ontario for the past seventeen years, which she notes is a milestone for her, and asks how long it takes to be rooted to a place?

Seeing the landscape around her with the layered experience of a childhood spent wandering the world, Pirbhai shares her efforts to create a garden and understand her new home while encouraging others to do reconsider the land on which they live, and how they treat it.

Send Us a Message!Curious about how the winter solstice can guide you through reflection and renewal? In this episode, we illuminate the spiritual significance of embracing the longest night of the year as a powerful time for transformation and balance. Learn how turning inward and confronting our shadow aspects can actually awaken our inner light and facilitate healing. Christine shares a guided meditation designed to help process and release emotions, restoring harmony during this sacred season. Join us as we navigate the depths of solstice symbolism, drawing intriguing parallels to mythological journeys such as Inanna's descent into the underworld. We explore the importance of shedding superficial layers to uncover our true, authentic selves and discuss how this process of transformation mirrors the Phoenix rising from the ashes. This season offers a unique opportunity to reflect on what no longer serves us and to embrace perceived flaws as strengths, setting the stage for growth and renewal when the light returns.In our exploration of personal experiences with the winter solstice, we emphasize the need for individual reflection and self-awareness. While some may find this season stressful and filled with consumerism, others discover a time of rest, creativity, and inspiration. By balancing activity with moments of quiet reflection, we are encouraged to assess our needs and release preconceived notions. Whether you seek solitude or engage in social festivities, find what truly nourishes you during this time and make space for your own unique interpretations of the solstice's energy.Moon Rising Shamanic Institute Links:Website: https://moonrisinginstitute.com/Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/moonrisinginstituteFacebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/moonrisingmysticsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/moonrising.instituteYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@moonrisinginstituteBook a session with Isabel: https://calendly.com/into-the-deep/scheduleBook a FREE 15 minute connect call with Izzy: https://calendly.com/moonrisinginstitute/connect Book a session with Christine: https://calendly.com/christinerenee/90-minutes-intensiveBook a FREE 10 minute connect call with Christine: https://calendly.com/christinerenee/10-minute-connect-call-srpt

We explored how understanding one's Venus placement in the natal chart can provide insights into personal purpose and growth. The conversation delves into the ancient story of Inanna, the goddess associated with Venus, and how her journey reflects the cycles of life and self-discovery. Danielle did such a great job explaining this ancient story to help us be able to relate to it's lessons in this modern world. The story clearly helps someone in search of their soul's purpose and understanding the collective mystery school every 19 months. This is truly like having a cheat sheet in this game called life.

Success in our goals, our careers, our lives is of course, valuable and important. But…what happens when we start to overly identify with success or symbols of status? How does this end up blocking up from our goals and holding us back from transformation?   We explore all of this and more in today's episode where we unpack a piece of the Myth of Inanna's Descent - one of my favorite all time myths!   It's a deep and layered exploration - part storytelling, part introspection, part looking at how we help our clients….even mixed in with a public service announcement or two from me! (I get pretty passionate about some things!).   In this episode you'll learn about:   ⇒ the power of mythology and how it can help you in your life => Inanna's Descent (one of the oldest stories out there!) ⇒ what happens when we cling to worldly success and symbols of power & respect ⇒ why it's important to make the metaphoric journey to the Underworld ⇒ 3 of the 4 Sacred Depths pillars, and which skills you need to help clients unpack messaging that has seeped in through culture   I revisit the myth of Inanna's Descent every single year for myself - that's how important it is. I hope you'll find it as meaningful and rich as I do!   _________________   If you've been wanting to take your coaching & transformational skills to the next level - and to grow your business in organic ways through referrals, renewals and creating a stellar reputation for yourself - please join us for The Sacred Depths Transformational Practitioner Certification.   The cohort & community that is coming together for our start at the end of October is phenomenal, and it is my best and favorite way to help you create the client work and business that you deserve to have.   You can learn more here.   And you can access the free How to Work with Shadow ebook here!

From Staci B's About page: The stress from complex trauma and undiagnosed neurodivergence, along with serving as a caregiver for over a decade, pushed Staci b's nervous system into a continuous state of high alert. Determined not to let her fate be eternal survival mode, she embarked on a journey that led her to become a Nervous System Regulation Evangelist. With hundreds of hours of research under her belt, staci translates complex science into easily digestible information and points the way to valuable resources that empower others to create a nervous system regulation practice that works best for them. A journalist, author, and speaker, Staci highlights the value of nervous system regulation by openly sharing her own stories, both in person and in The Nervous System: Before and After, an essay series on her Substack, Inanna's Journal. By providing real-life examples of her own behavior in situations and relationships before she began a nervous system regulation practice and after, she illustrates the depth of the benefits available from this work. A sought-after podcast guest and speaker, she credits nervous system regulation as the foundation that frees her to live her destiny and not her fate. Staci B Vroom Vroom Veer Show Summary Jeff warmly welcomes Staci, who immediately shares a recent unsettling incident—a verbal attack from a stranger, highlighting her ability to handle such events thanks to her tools for nervous system regulation. The conversation naturally delves into the topics of personal security, the usefulness of secondary phone numbers via Google Voice, and strategies to protect one's privacy. The dialogue continues to unpack Staci's expertise in nervous system regulation. She shares insights from her own experiences and stresses the significance of understanding and regulating one's nervous system to improve overall well-being. The hosts discuss the therapeutic practices and the importance of recognizing physiological responses to stress. Staci also discusses her upcoming book re-release, which invites deeper into the discussion of personal growth, the costs of pursuing dreams, and the challenges and resilience in face of adversity and trauma. Staci explains her role as a "nervous system regulation evangelist," promoting a deeper understanding of self-regulation and advocating for mental health awareness and understanding. In an extended, heartfelt segment, they explore societal behaviors, personal anecdotes about dealing with life's randomness and unexpected events, and the role that personal regulation plays in healthily managing responses to life's events. They touch upon the cultural shifts in understanding neurodivergence and the personal and societal impacts of gaining better control over one's nervous responses. Jeff and Staci's engaging dialogue, mixed with personal stories and actionable advice, guides the listener through understanding how conscious regulation of the nervous system can not only manage immediate stressors but also lead to a more fulfilling and controlled life path. The episode wraps up encouraging listeners to explore and practice methods of self-regulation, promoting both websites and online communities that focus on supporting individuals in their journey toward better mental health and awareness.
