Are you ready to reclaim your power with the Animus in your Hero’s Journey? In this episode, we’re venturing deeper into Jungian psychology to uncover what it means to engage the Animus and claim your inner authority and true power.
We’ll explore the powerful second stage of initiation, showing how your relationship with the archetypal father shapes your spiritual strength, and how integration of this energy is key to self-realization.
In this episode, we discuss:
- The difference between shadow work and true integration (why insight isn’t enough)
- The symbolic meaning of the animus as authority, power, and the invisible forces shaping our lives
- How personal experiences with authority figures influence your connection to the divine and your own power
- Practical steps to reclaim inner authority, break through old patterns, and connect with your deepest self
If you’re ready to move beyond old limitations and bring the treasures of self-discovery into your everyday life, this episode is your map. Subscribe and journey with us next week for the “Return”—how to re-enter the world fully transformed.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
