Do you long to reawaken the thrills and wonders of adventure, mystery and magic in your daily routine? Do you feel emotionally drained or a lack of purpose in your life? If this is the case, I'd like to prescribe you with a little mythology. Joseph Campbell once said that "myths are stories that never happened, but are happening all the time". Carl Jung taught us that myths exist to bring us into a level of consciousness that is spiritual. Myths have propelled the circulation of knowledge, information, history and values since the dawn of humanity. They transcend cultures, space and time and are applicable regardless of societal beliefs or geographical location. Best of all, I know for me personally, myths have brought back a sense of the mysterious and miraculous and have ignited my imagination and ability to live with wonder and lightness. Pamela Jaye Smith is an experienced mythologist, writer, and media consultant who has worked in various forms of media production for over 35 years. She has formal education in Comparative Mysticism and is a certified teacher of the Mystery Schools. She is the founder of MYTHWORKS and co-founder of Mythic Challenges, which helps people create media that addresses global challenges identified by the United Nations and other organizations. Pamela has authored six books for media makers, and she helps people enhance their stories using mythic themes, archetypes, and symbols. Smith appears as a mythology expert on Ice Age: Continental Drift, The Great Work, Forbidden Secrets, Microsoft's “Age of Mythology” game and American Jedi. Additionally, she is a Master Mason in a co-ed Lodge. You can find more about Pamela, her products and work at pamelajayesmith.net. Our discussion today covers a variety of topics, including the definition and utilization of mythology, the Five Initiations, the myth of Prometheus and the value of authentic thought unswayed by emotional dogma. Pamela helps us understand the central themes of our lives beyond the "Hero's Journey" monomyth, and draws correlations between common human identities and the mythological characters they represent.

A.R.S.N.K made Jesse sweat with anxiety the first time he shot her performing live. Clearly, they've managed to scoop the friendship up since then and it's good that they did. Had they not, we wouldn't have this conversation on being invisible in your art, living homeless, sleep paralysis, and phenomenology. After we get through all of that, we turn to the Fishbowl, pulling questions from previous guests, Craft By Maki, Pamela Jaye Smith and Non-Fishbowler Shiz. Other than that, we have three questions that rhyme (a fabulous first, if ever there was one)! ‘When did you last cry', ‘how do you want to die' and ‘what animal do you want to be and why'? As always, thank you for listening!NOTESSeason 02 Episode 10Indie Musicians: A.R.S.N.K.

If you've had questions about the book of darkness, we have good news! Pamela wrote it (for MWP and titled it The Power of The Dark Side). Of course, she is more than an author. We get into philosophy, free will, religion, love and the fringes of life. If those topics seems heavy and heady, you're in for a treat. Pamela keeps the conversation light and breezy.
