Clarissa Pinkola Estes (Women Who Run With The Wolves) says "That is, to be ourselves causes us to be exiled by many others, and yet to comply with what others want causes us to be exiled from ourselves".
In this episode of Descent & Rebirth, we dive into the story of the matchstick girl, a symbol of the wounded maiden archetype who seeks warmth and validation from the outside world, only to be left cold and alone.
Inspired by the teachings of Clarissa Pinkola Estés, we explore how this tale mirrors the way many women live today—especially in the age of social media, where fleeting moments of external validation often leave us more disconnected from ourselves.
Join me as we unravel the deeper meaning behind the matchstick girl’s struggle, and how we can break free from the cycle of seeking temporary comfort. Together, we’ll journey through the underworld of self-abandonment and explore how to reclaim our inner fire, heal the wounded maiden within, and step into our full power.
This is a call to stop lighting matches for fleeting warmth and start tending to the fire of our wild, authentic selves.
