The Inward Sea
Mythology • folklore • Jungian ideas • archetypes • shadow work • creativity • personal growth. The Inward Sea is a storytelling podcast where ancient myths and living symbols meet real life. Each episode we follow a mythic thread, amplify the images by examining how they show up in other cultures and traditions. We talk about Jung, depth psychology, yin–yang dynamics, and end with reflection prompts you can actually use—often drawn from live workshops and courses.

What happens after you reclaim the power you once feared?
In this third step of Theseus’ journey, we follow the young hero as he leaves Epidaurus and travels across the narrow land bridge of the Isthmus — that grey, shimmering strip between two seas. There, he faces two strange and symbolic trials: Sínis, the Pine-Bender, and the Crommyonian Sow.
Each encounter reveals a new challenge in the work of self-transformation. Sínis confr...
In this episode of The Inward Sea, we continue the journey of Theseus along the perilous road to Athens—just as the land begins to rise.
After surviving descent, shadow, and instinct, Theseus reaches high ground above the waters of the Bad Bay (Κακιά Σκάλα). There, he encounters Skíron: a figure who appears wise, hospitable, and authoritative, yet whose true danger lies not in open violence, but in the p...
