A nine-episode series devoted to The Medial Woman — an archetype of the feminine psyche. She perceives intuitively what most do not. She is a mediator. She embodies the wisdom of the in between. She is immersed in the collective unconscious, translating between the material world and the spiritual realm, between the rational and the imaginal, between life and death. Her task is to bring this collective content into the world through her own deep knowing — often experienced through dreams, visions, voices, and sensations in her body. This feminine archetype was once revered in seers, medicine women, herbalists, alchemists, midwives, priestesses, and healers. Her place in the modern world is much less clear — though we need her now more than ever.⁣

Each 30-minute episode is inspired by my own lived experience, includes a brief book review of an influential work from an expert in the field, and ends with suggestions for journal and drawing prompts, guided imaginings, and gentle movement practices.⁣
