Personal Mythmaking with Janelle Hardy (formerly the Wild Elixir Podcast)
90 episodes - English - Latest episode: almost 2 years ago - ★★★★★ - 16 ratingsI asked my female and non-binary guests the same four questions, and together, we followed the intriguing threads of story and curiosity as they unspooled.
1 - Where are you and whose traditional (Indigenous) territory are you on?
2 - What’s your favourite fairytale/ancient tale?
3 - What’s your relationship with your body like?
4 - And what’s your connection to your creativity?
These potent conversations are created by mixing creativity + the body + fairy tales + conversation with wild abandon.
