Myth, embodiment, and the psychology of transformation are weaved in this conversation with Carly Mountain, psychotherapist and author of Descent and Rising and Untamed Pleasure.

In this episode, we explore the myth of Inanna as a guide to the underworld journey, those moments that dismantle identity and ask us to move through loss, uncertainty, and change. We speak about descent as a necessary process, and what it reveals in a culture that resists it.

This conversation brings a grounded, mythic lens to experiences many women know intimately, offering language, perspective, and a way to stay with what is unfolding.
