'The Creative Fire: Myths & Stories on the Cycles of Creativity' by Clarissa Pinkola Estes

Estes is best known for her seminal work 'Women Who Run With The Wolves'. If you enjoy this podcast, you will enjoy this book! If you've already read it, do give her audiobooks a try. They're full of great material and her voice is incredibly rich.

My new series of online Cave of Dreams events with Danica Boyce runs October 2025 to February 2026. Learn more here.
