Stories are how we make sense of the world, of who we are and where we are going. They help us imagine a future we cannot yet see, and are powerful catalysts for change. Fairytales and myths connect us with the emotional and intuitive parts of our brain, lifting us out of the familiar and opening up new perspectives.

I believe that stories and fairy tales matter.

According to the findings of the great mythologist Joseph Campbell and his extensive research into the world’s myths, legends and folklore, our stories are more than just the narration of events. Stories give us a roadmap, values and perspective. They show us what to fear and what to embrace.

 

Our stories are vehicles for our own transformation.

Life is full of mysteries, wonder and so many questions one might not even know to ask.
I love to reflect, to stretch my mind for what is beyond the realm of what I know or can understand, to find and connect new dots into a pattern.

As a little girl, I often lay in my bed, unable to sleep with one particular question playing on repeat in my mind; "Who am I? Who am I? Who am I? What is inside of me?"

I was both terrified and curious to find out who I was.
This lead me on a life-long search....

I am perpetually fascinated by how we are all uniquely different and at the same time not that different at all. How we can recognize ourselves in others, and still have our own unique style, talent, and mission. 

I truly believe that when we live through our own agency, everyone benefits. But how will you find the life that is defined by you, your aspirations, your inner voice, your beliefs and values? Your universe.
And how will you find the courage to go searching for what is yours, and then to live it by your own standards?

Reflections on these endless topics (at least for me) are what you will find on my blog.

I hope to see you there!
