03: Do You Know Thyself?

Episode Overview

Go introspective with Kate Harris as she explores the profound journey of self-discovery, comparing it to learning to navigate a longship across both calm and turbulent waters. Drawing on Carl Jung's wisdom, she invites listeners to embrace both the light and shadow aspects of themselves, recognizing that transformation comes not from reaching a destination but from mastering the art of navigation through life's depths.

Creative Prompts

• Write a letter to your younger self revealing a truth you wish they had known sooner - but make it read like a love letter to their uncertainty.
• Create a series of mirror photographs where each reflection shows a different facet of yourself that society told you to hide. What emerges in the final image?
• Document the exact moment you chose authenticity over approval - write it as a scene where defiance tastes like honey instead of metal.
