Listen "We All Travel the Hero's Journey"
Episode Synopsis
This deep-dive analyses an article written by Greg Twemlow, proposing that the "hero's journey", as described by mythologist Joseph Campbell, is a universal archetype that applies to all individuals. Twemlow reinterprets Campbell's concept to suggest that everyone experiences a heroic transformation throughout their lives, from the heroic act of birth to overcoming personal challenges and achieving a state of self-responsibility. He further simplifies the concept by presenting a fictional narrative of a village hero who confronts an evil force, a narrative that resonates with the core themes of bravery, self-sacrifice, and overcoming adversity. Twemlow concludes by encouraging readers to reflect on their own lives and recognize the heroic moments they have experienced, emphasizing that everyone is capable of living a heroic life.
