#112 Motherhood, Mythology & Metamorphosis with Lisa Marchiano

Lisa is a writer, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a certified Jungian Analyst. She is a co-host of the podcast This Jungian Life and the author of Motherhood: Facing and Finding Yourself. She joins me on the podcast to talk about motherhood (both literally and figuratively), and how it offers us a meaningful path toward our own individuation. We speak about projection, the process of creativity, the dangers of victimhood, the fallacy of control, and distinguishing the difference between intuition vs. anxiety. We also discuss the power of mythology as a warehouse of psychic patterns and their capacity to give us language for things that are notoriously hard to language.
