Show Notes

In this episode, we turn to one of the most haunting figures of Greek mythology—Medusa. Often remembered only for her serpent hair and petrifying gaze, Medusa’s story is far more complex than a simple tale of monstrosity. Behind her curse lies themes of injustice, divine punishment, feminine power, and ultimately, transformation. From victim to symbol, Medusa’s journey has fascinated philosophers, artists, and spiritual thinkers for centuries. Join me as we unravel the deeper meaning of the Gorgon’s curse, and discover how Medusa’s legacy continues to challenge our understanding of fear, beauty, and empowerment.
