120: The Archetype Wheel: Mapping Out Our Inner Patterns with Greg Schmaus
About this episode
In this episode, author, coach, and returning guest Greg Schmaus and Mike dive into the world of archetypes and their role in personal development. We explore how our lives mirror stories, with each of us embodying different archetypes, like the hero, across various areas such as work and relationships. You'll learn about The Archetype Wheel, which links these archetypes to the 12 astrological houses, providing a framework for understanding personal patterns and challenges. The conversation also covers survival archetypes like the victim, saboteur, prostitute, and child, and how they can impact our behaviors. Greg shares insights on self-resourcing, and how understanding these archetypes can lead to more powerful and balanced lives.
Topics Covered:
- Understanding Archetypes through Storytelling
- The Archetype Wheel
- Personal Examples and Deeper Material with the Wheel
- Putting Two Wheels Together: Relationship Dynamics
- The Warrior and Mediator: Balancing Strength and Harmony
- Healing Your Core Archetypes: A Journey of Empowerment
