Imagine peeling back the layers of your identity to reveal a truer, more authentic self.

Today, host Lisa Marie Rankin delves into the process of shedding personas to access our true essence and inner strength. Guided by the myth of the Sumerian goddess Inanna, who descends into the underworld and sheds her divine garments to confront her shadow, Lisa eloquently weaves Jungian concepts of the persona, the self, and the shadow into a rich tapestry of self-discovery. Through this ancient narrative, you'll be encouraged to let go of your protective layers and roles, confronting your vulnerabilities to become more whole.

Lisa also shares a personal story of leaving her corporate job, highlighting the challenges and rewards of shedding a deeply ingrained persona. She emphasizes that while personas can provide safety and validation, they can limit personal growth and self-awareness.

This episode serves as a compassionate guide for anyone ready to descend into their depths and emerge stronger and more connected to their true selves.
