The Myth of Inanna & how we Cling to Status

Joannaig Square@2x

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!
