2026-11-0542:33

What happens to our discernment when something speaks directly to what we most want? In Greek mythology, the Sirens lure sailors with an irresistible song. But seduction extends far beyond sexuality.

In this episode of Create Love Create Freedom, we explore prudence as the psychology of governed power—the ability to consider timing, cons...

2026-10-2252:32

Can a woman enter love without surrendering the throne of her own life? In this episode of Create Love Create Freedom, we return to the myth of Persephone—but not simply as the maiden who descends into the Underworld. We explore Persephone as the Shadow Empress: the woman who has developed enough self-possession, judgment, and inner authority to love deeply without disappearing inside love. The maiden asks, Will I be chosen? The Queen understands that she is choosing too. We explore why Hades...
