Are you showing up as the maiden or the prostitute? Throughout our cycle, we can show up as different feminine archetypes. The Maiden is the young girl in us who wants to take on the world and do everything she wants to do.

Come explore the feminine archetypes with us in this podcast as we dive deep into our inner seasons with their archetypes and shadow sides. Megan Hayne is a mother, womb holder, and village facilitator of menstrual sisterhood circles.
