Joe Hawley Newsletter: https://www.joe-hawley.com/ This week we have my great friend Melanie Barrett on the podcast! With a Bachelor of Science in International Business and 10 years of Project Management in the Corporate Setting of Design Build, Melanie pivoted her career for the love of people and healing. After 18 years of raising her daughter as a single mom, giving back to others is where Melanie’s passion lies. Powerful in the embodiment of balanced energy, Melanie's ability to transmute & alchemize stories of her own adversity empower others to stand in their unwavering truth & own their fullest expression in life. In this episode, we discuss our societies lack of rites of passage and what we lost when we don’t collectively put ourselves through death/rebirth processes. Melanie also explains her understanding of the Matriarchy, The Hero/Heroin’s Journey, and the importance of healing the mother energy within us all. Finally, we discuss how we can use our traumatic experiences to heal and become stronger versions of ourselves. You’re going to love this one!
