While they may not be conventional warriors, are the loving mother, the healer, or the shepherd any less heroic? They face chaos and adversity not with sword and shield, but with compassion and wisdom. What we want to point out in this episode is that there is an archetype that embodies both the gentle and firm aspects of heroism, and striving to embody this archetype is a far more relevant and useful aim than putting all our eggs in the basket of warrior-hood. That archetype is the Sage. ➡️ See full notes on the companion blog: https://www.evolvemoveplay.com/heroic-sage-with-john-vervaeke-episode-48/ ------------------------------ ✅ Join our Natural Parkour Online Membership!
