In this episode of Book Talk for BookTok, we interview #1 New York Times bestselling romantasy author Abigail Owen to discuss her new release, The Things Gods Break — the spellbinding sequel to The Games Gods Play. This mythic romantasy series reimagines Titan mythology through a darkly emotional lens, blending ancient lore, forbidden love, and fate versus free will into a story that feels both epic and deeply personal. Abigail shares how she built her modern Hades and Persephone–inspired world, reshaping familiar gods and Titans into complex, morally gray characters. We talk about how The Things Gods Break expands the universe of The Games Gods Play, what secrets from the first book take on new meaning, and how she balances destiny with consequence in her storytelling. For fans of romantasy podcasts, fantasy author interviews, and BookTok-favorite series with heart, heat, and mythology, this conversation dives into the craft and emotional depth behind one of today's most compelling voices in fantasy romance.

WelcomeHello, Lovelies. It's Juliette here, and today I am joined by the extraordinary Sevda Hussain. Sevda's story is one of resilience, rebellion, and deep embodiment. From a childhood marked by abandonment to three decades in the adult industry, she discovered confidence, self-love, and the truth of living as art itself. In this conversation, we move through Persephone's underworld, into the light of dark luxury, embodiment, plus-size confidence, and the power of daring to stand fully in your truth.Episode Summary In this episode, Sevda and I walk through her extraordinary journey, a life she describes as much like Persephone, the queen of the underworld. From being left in hospital at birth and moving through over a hundred foster homes by the age of three, to three decades in the adult industry, Sevda shares how her path into the shadows taught her self-love, embodiment, and confidence as a plus-size woman. We speak about sex work as a form of therapy, the myths around desirability, and how women can dare to believe their truth. Sevda also opens up about her work in dark luxury branding, helping women not just look like art but become it, and how she continues to channel her rebel spirit into creativity, poetry, and embodiment.Key Takeaways Life Like PersephoneSevda describes her journey through abandonment, foster care, and the adult industry as a path much like Persephone, moving through the underworld to find power, beauty, and truth.Embodiment Over ImageConfidence is not about how a photo looks. It is about whether you can keep showing up in your embodiment, again and again.Curves Are DesiredThe myth that only thin women are wanted is conditioning. Desire lives in curves, softness, and truth. BBW sex work revealed what women have been taught to deny.Dark Luxury BrandingSevda creates intuitive branding that turns women into art itself. Not performance, not façade, but embodiment made visible.Rebellion as TruthBeing called a rebel is not defiance for its own sake. It is daring to challenge systems, conditioning, and shame. The real rebellion is standing in your truth.Resources and Links

Step through the door marked “Descendant” and into the seventh house, where the self meets the other and the mirror talks back. We dive into the psychology of partnership, the craft of vows, and the often-misunderstood terrain where love and conflict live side by side. I unpack why the descendant tends to fall into the unconscious, how projection turns lovers into open enemies, and what it takes to retrieve the disowned parts of ourselves without losing our center. Along the way, we lean on process-oriented therapy—primary identity, edge figures, and the art of crossing the edge in small, safe doses—to rebuild agency in how we relate.Myth deepens the map. With Venus and Saturn shaping Libra's field, the seventh house blends connection with commitment and reminds the ego (the Sun in fall here) that true partnership requires tempering. Hera, guardian of marriage, stands for vows, structure, and integrity, while her painful bond with Zeus shows what happens when promise meets perpetual transgression. To balance that image, we look to Hades and Persephone as an unexpected model of secure attachment: a commitment spacious enough to allow difference, cycles, and sovereignty. That tension—freedom within form—becomes a practical guide for healthier boundaries, clearer requests, and more resilient repair.You'll leave with tools for “projection hygiene,” fresh ways to read your chart from the descendant, and a simple practice for recruiting your Midheaven as a meta-communicator that can hold both “I am” and “I am not.” If you've ever wondered why certain partners, rivals, or patterns keep appearing, this exploration offers a compassionate, grounded path to see them—and yourself—more clearly. Listen now, share this episode with a friend who loves astrology and myth, and if the journey resonates, subscribe, leave a review, and tell us: what does your descendant want you to reclaim?*this episode blurb was created by Buzzsprout's AIReferences mentioned in this episode:Fritz Perls – Gestalt PrayerHoward Sasportas – The Twelve HousesRabbi HillelCarl Jung – Mysterium ConiunctionisArnold (Arnie) Mindell – Process-Oriented Psychotherapy / Process WorkBrian ClarkJason HolleyRumpelstiltskinSnow WhiteHeraZeusCronus (Saturn)RheaAmaltheaMetisPersephoneHadesAriadneDionysusPanEchoHermesJoin the Newsletter!

Tristan Hughes is joined by Dr. Kate Lister to take us on a journey through the fascinating history of Innana, an ancient goddess of love, war, fertility, and political power. They delve into her evolution from a humble agricultural deity to one of the most powerful and complex figures in ancient mythology, revered in Mesopotamia and beyond. This one goddess influenced millennia of religious and cultural history, possibly extending even to Persephone and the Virgin Mary.MOREPersephone: Queen of the UnderworldSex Work in Pompeii with Kate ListerPresented by Tristan Hughes.

R.F Kuang's Katabasis has reignited the discourse around journeying into the underworld as a storytelling device. We've covered many stories in the past with the theme of Katabasis (namely Inanna and Persephone), so why not deep dive into the various versions of Orpheus' myth especially with Supergiant Games' Hades II coming out! Join us as we trace Orpheus and Eurydice's story from Pindar to Virgil and Ovid all the way to Supernatural, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Hadestown as we ask the age old question- why did Orpheus turn?  Show notes for this episode can be found on our website at: https://talesfromtheenchantedforest.com/2025/09/24/katabasis-the-myth-of-orpheus/ You can also find us on: Bluesky Mastodon Instagram   TikTok

 "Not just about crowns and glitter and farting unicorns"This episode is a dark conversation for the dark half of the year. The witches sit down with Iberian Shamaness, Priestess, and author Ness Bosch to talk about her work, her book Sacred Bones, Magic Bones, and the deep magick of inner work and symbolic sacrifice. Living in Scotland and teaching internationally, Ness brings a grounded and ancient perspective to the conversation.Together, they explore powerful mythic figures like Persephone, Inanna, Cailleach, and Ariadne; goddesses who carry wounds and wisdom, and who show us how to walk willingly into the shadows of transformation. This episode is full of the intensity of the season. The three witches discuss the themes of sacrifice, symbolic death, and of letting go to make room for something new when the light returns.Prepare to be challenged, comforted, and called inward as Ness shares insights on spiritual death, ancestral healing, and the fierce power of dark goddesses, even when wounded. It's an episode about finding sacredness in surrender, and magic in the bones we carry.National Sexual Assault Hotline Text HOPE to 64673 to get support directly on your device. Suicide and Crisis Lifeline 988Depression Hotline 888-912-7630If you are in immediate danger, call 911Got a question?

It's a time when day and night are equal length, symbolizing balance and harmony. Referred to as the "Witches' Thanksgiving," it's a time to give thanks for the harvest and the abundance in our lives. As the days grow shorter, we reflect on the year so far and prepare for the coming winter months.Did you know? Mabon celebrates the story of Demeter, goddess of grain, agriculture, and fertility, and her daughter Persephone. When Hades abducts Persephone and forces her to marry him in the underworld, Demeter causes the Earth to go barren. Zeus negotiates with Hades to allow Persephone to be free for half the year, so Demeter only allows abundance on Earth half the year.Even though the exact date of the equinox is September 22, we can celebrate this whole season.

Is there esoteric symbolism behind some of our most cherished stories? You bet there is! Once you start, it might be hard to stop but I went through the looking glass and followed the yellow brick road to start on this search. Yes, we're exploring the esoteric aspects of Alice in Wonderland and the Wizard of Oz. In this, we touch on some minor topics like the role of institutions, systems, self and God. Small stuff. We also examine the Persephone archetype and whether it apples. What's a psycho pomp? who's "we"? I'm glad you asked. My esoteric dream tag team of the National Wrestling Alliance's Aron Stephens (FKA Damien Sandow, Aron Rex, et al) and the Reverend Doctor (going on three doctoriates) David Parry. Bring your third eyes, pineal glands and thinking caps today. We go deep. Like even the 4 cardinal directions are part of this.How could they not be? 

Is it the C-section? The formula? The antibiotics? Parents often wonder if they've messed up their baby's gut health. In this episode, Dr. Wendy talks with Stephanie Culler PhD, co-founder of Persephone Biosciences, about groundbreaking research on the infant microbiome. You'll learn why most American babies are missing Bifidobacterium infantis—the bacteria that digest special sugars in breast milk and help build the immune system—and how new science is bringing those microbes back through a product called a “synbiotic.”    Purchase Persephone Bloom and Thrive Product now on Peresphone Biosciences website!

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we're joined by Dr. Stephanie Culler — a microbiome scientist and baby gut health expert — to talk about one of the most important (and overlooked (like seriously we had no clue!!!)) parts of raising healthy kids: the gut. Dr. Culler breaks down what gut health actually is, why so many babies are born missing critical microbes, and what that means for things like chronic illness, food allergies, eczema, and even obesity later in life. Dr. Culler shares what parents can do in the first 1,000 days (from pregnancy through toddlerhood) to set their child up for lifelong health, from everyday food choices to the role of antibiotics, and how her groundbreaking study revealed that most babies around the world lack the microbes they need. We also get into practical solutions — like how parents can help restore those microbes through Persephone's new infant & toddler synbiotic (or any pre/probiotic!!!) — plus the foods to focus on (and avoid), and why gut health should be part of every child's standard care. If you're curious about how to give your baby the healthiest start possible, this one's packed with insights you won't want to miss. LOVE YOU GUYS!

Welcome back to Wrestling Tonight, your weekly look at everything happening across WWE, AEW, NJPW, TNA, and beyond. This week's episode covers one of the most loaded slates of the year as the summer calendar reaches a boiling point. We begin with a full preview of AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door, where the world's biggest promotions collide once again on one of wrestling's most anticipated stages. Headlining the card, AEW World Champion Hangman Page defends against MJF in a long-awaited rematch, while AEW Unified Champion Kazuchika Okada puts his title on the line against Swerve Strickland. The show also features the reunion of Adam Copeland and Christian Cage as they team for the first time in over 14 years, Toni Storm defending the AEW Women's World Championship against Athena, and Zack Sabre Jr. meeting Nigel McGuinness for the IWGP World Championship. Kyle Fletcher defends the TNT title against Hiromu Takahashi, Mercedes Moné faces Persephone, Alex Windsor, and a Stardom representative in a TBS Championship Four-Way, and a stacked lights-out steel cage match pits Will Ospreay, Kenny Omega, Kota Ibushi, Darby Allin, and Hiroshi Tanahashi in his London farewell against Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Gabe Kidd, and The Young Bucks. From there, we turn to WWE's future with NXT Heatwave. Oba Femi is set to defend the NXT Championship against either Trick Williams or Je'Von Evans, while Hank Walker and Tank Ledger put the NXT Tag Team titles on the line against DarkState. Jacy Jayne defends the TNA Knockouts World Championship in a triple threat against Masha Slamovich and Ash by Elegance, and Jordynne Grace collides with Blake Monroe. A number one contender's match for the NXT Women's Championship will also take place featuring Jaida Parker, Kelani Jordan, and Lola Vice. Over in TNA, Emergence 2025 delivered a card full of major results. Trick Williams retained the World Championship against Moose in a match that had the Baltimore crowd split but firmly cemented Williams as TNA's top babyface. The Hardys retained the World Tag Team titles against The Rascalz in one of the night's highlights, Leon Slater held onto the X-Division Championship against Cedric Alexander, and Mike Santana defeated Sami Callihan in a Baltimore Street Fight that may have marked Callihan's farewell. While technical issues marred the preshow, the main event and key title bouts gave TNA momentum heading into Bound for Glory. In Mexico, Triplemanía marked the official beginning of WWE and AAA's working relationship. Triple H, Shawn Michaels, and Nick Khan stood alongside AAA leadership to emphasize collaboration. On the card, Omos won the Copa Bardahl, El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. claimed the Latin American title, and Psycho Clown and Pagano captured the AAA Tag Team Championship. Judgment Day scored a win in trios action, Flammer retained the Reina de Reinas Championship, and in the main event, El Hijo del Vikingo retained the AAA Mega Championship in a four-way over Dominik Mysterio, Dragon Lee, and El Grande Americano, with AJ Styles making a shocking run-in to help seal the finish. The event had the production, presentation, and pacing of a WWE show, sparking debate about AAA's evolving identity under this partnership. On the business side, TKO announced that UFC will end its traditional pay-per-view model beginning in January 2026 under a $7.7 billion, seven-year deal with Paramount Plus and CBS. WWE also secured a five-year, $1.6 billion agreement with ESPN, moving Premium Live Events like WrestleMania, SummerSlam, and Royal Rumble to ESPN's new streaming service. At the same time, reports revealed WWE holds an option to purchase TNA and a right of first refusal should the company seek another buyer, further linking the two promotions' futures. Finally, NJPW's G1 Climax 35 has reached its conclusion. Konosuke Takeshita defeated EVIL in the final at Ariake Arena, fighting through an injured knee and overcoming House of Torture interference to secure his first G1 victory. Along the way, Takeshita shocked Zack Sabre Jr. in the semifinals, setting the stage for their Wrestle Kingdom clash, where he will challenge for the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship. With this win, Takeshita declared himself “The Alpha,” signaling his rise as NJPW's new international ace.

Yola hit the music scene hard and fast with her 2019 debut, Walk Through Fire. Lately she’s been showing off her acting chops—as Sister Rosetta Tharpe in Baz Luhrmann’s 2022 Best Picture nominee ELVIS, and Persephone in Hadestown on Broadway. Despite the detours, her songwriting skills are as potent as ever. Check out the high power track “Amazing.” This song, from her new EP My Way, is one she penned while dating stateside and imagining her future partner. Yola says: “I was in a function of actively manifesting those lyrics, and then when I met my person, the lyrics made sense.”
