The exploration of archetypes is one of the most important maps that we can use to guide us along our journey through life.

So in this podcast, we talk about the King Queen archetype and the Warrior Huntress archetype,

with none other than my favorite people on the planet, Kyle Kingsbury, Eric Godsey and Caitlin Howe.

A quick word, this week's podcast has brought to you by Fit for Service, Lucy and On It.

So as I was saying about this podcast on archetypes, I think it's really important to understand that these archetypes are within us.

It's not like we're one of these different things and the only thing that we are as a King or a Warrior or a Magician or a lover, we're all of them.

And there's different ways that we can express these archetypes in the most productive and the highest way.

And then there's ways that we can express them in the shadow way.

But if we don't understand the archetypes, we have no room to navigate and we have no guide star to guide ourselves.

So this podcast is divided into two parts. I hope you guys love it. It was one of the favorite recordings that I've done this year,

partly because how much I love all of my co-hosts, but also because this topic is incredibly important and something I'm deeply passionate about.

So before we get started, I'm going to read through all of the different advertisements for this week's podcast.

This is a new way that I'm going to highlight my sponsors. And just so you all know, these sponsorships are incredibly important for supporting the team and supporting the podcast.

So if you can give them a listen, I wouldn't be talking about anything that I wasn't passionate about. So hopefully these services and products will be something that's really accretive to your life.

So first and foremost, I want to talk to you guys about Fit for Service. At this table, recording this podcast are the Fit for Service core coaches.

We've all gone through our experiential journey. And the way that we orient ourselves to the Fit for Service community is not through a hierarchy. We're sitting right there, asked on the grass with everybody going through the transformational practices and reaching out and creating this community.

I mean, when I'm going through something hard and when things are challenging and difficult, it's the fit for service community that I'm reaching out to along with these coaches here at the table and along with a few select people.

But this is a community that I'm not only helping to lead, but that I'm a part of. And the beauty of this is what we're able to share together. The transformation, the vulnerability, the ability to see each other.

It is actually accessing one of the deepest human drives and that's the drive for connection.

And that drive for connection is so, so primal and primordial to who we are. I mean, there's hormones that get released when we give somebody a hug. It's called oxytocin. There's ways in which we're actually programmed for human connection.

And the psychological effects of really being seen and having people there radically supporting you not for your shiny projections and your avatars and your gifts and your talents, but really for the raw, messy and ultimately beautiful truth of who you are.
