Series 2, Episode 1
Estelle with Dr. Sharon Blackie
on Myths, the Divine Feminine and Belonging
In this first episode of a new series of Love, Purpose, Connection, I talk to mythologist, psychologist, and author of the award-winning book ‘If Women Rose Rooted’, Dr Sharon Blackie. Together we share an intimate conversation about the magic of the ‘old' stories; – the ancient myths that can help to re-enchant our lives and reawaken our power and authenticity. Sharon describes how a vulnerable childhood led her on a quest to find her true place in the world and how these stories helped her Re-Root, nourishing and connecting her to the world and her place within it.
