The Heroine's Journey by Maureen Murdock

What if the road to wholeness isn't about climbing a ladder, but descending back into your own soul?**✨

"I am deeply excited for our next circle as we dive into 'The Heroine's Journey' by Maureen Murdock—the book that famously challenged our ideas of success and provided a revolutionary roadmap for the feminine quest. It is a seminal work that touched a nerve in women’s consciousness globally by validating the silent, psychological 'descent' many of us experience on our road to becoming." (7.5 hour audio book)

Written as a necessary response to the traditional "Hero's Journey," Murdock (a prominent Jungian-oriented psychotherapist, author, and educator) traces the specific 10-stage quest women navigate as they move from seeking external, "masculine" success to reclaiming their "feminine" spirit.

Through a blend of clinical psychology, mythology, and deeply personal stories, the book explores how we can heal the internal split between our drive to achieve and our need to belong to ourselves. We will explore how "coming home" to our own wholeness is the ultimate act of sovereignty in a fractured world.

Themes we’ll explore:
✨ The Descent: Why the "dark nights of the soul" are not detours, but the essential soil for our rebirth.

✨ The Sacred Marriage: What it looks like to integrate our logic (inner masculine) with our intuition (inner feminine).

✨ Healing the Lineage: How making peace with our "mother-daughter" wounds allows us to stand firmly in our own authority.

✨ From Doing to Being: Shifting from the "Superwoman" trap into a life guided by authentic presence and creative flow.

RSVP to join the circle. I can’t wait to map this path of becoming with you.

As always, bring curiosity, ideas, and an open heart! 💗

Feel free to grab food or a drink before finding us (see below). We’ll spend time getting to know one another before starting our discussion promptly at 6:15pm. Bring a sweater or blanket just in case. 📚 ☕️ 🍷

How to find us: We will be seated at a table in the back courtyard near the parking lot behind Stonehaus near Spa Relais. There will be a sign on the table with the group name on it. See you then!✨
