Love this! I can relate to this post on different levels. I see a past version of myself that traversed the world through the lens of fear. It's taken a lot of work to get to a different mindset and I'm grateful to for the internal shift. You broke this concept down beautifully. I agree, many project their fears and insecurities onto others. Congrats on winning the contest! 🤍
I needed this, Megan. I’m a local and read your newsletters every week. This one really hits home. I’m a mythologist and archetypal psychologist. My strongest archetypal energy has been Athena, warrior of words who stands with men. Probably the same as your mother’s. But I’ve also been fiercely feminist. Your article really helped me move more deeply into that energy. Thank you. Keep writing.
