Feminine Myth Making

A year long embodied storytelling incubator
for those in service to womankind

FOR THE WOMAN WHO IS READY TO EMBODY THE MYTHS AND STORIES SHE IS A GUARDIAN OF

Stories are birthed through women’s bodies. This has always been the case. Our imaginations are bright hearth’s shimmering with images, stories, and wisdom waiting to be gathered and woven into culture.

This is each of our somatic inheritance, as women.

The problem is that Patriarchal culture taught women to abandon our bodies. Our culture fears our power and the story of destruction, extraction, and war has reigned supreme as a result.

This year long journey is a reclamation of your mythopoetic role as culture birthers.

You may have been robbed of the most powerful creative practice there is: approaching your body as vessel, your inner imagination as sacred, your myth-making gifts as medicine. But the reclamation is here and now.

Myth lives not within your mind, but your body

Because you were socialized to abandon your body and disconnect from your somatic imagination, you have denied the mythic impulses that want to express through you.

As you heal your relationship to your body you begin to reclaim your worth, your voice, and your validation from external systems that demand your disconnection.

And with this floods forward mythic stories.

Although our culture taught you to equate your body as an object and your desirability as a woman to how well you performance for the male gaze—you are reclaiming not just your worth but your mythopoetic role.

Your creative practice, authentic expression, and medicine is not meant to serve just your personal goals, but the culture we are collectively birthing together.

Our bodies generate archetypal images specifically to guide humanity forward. Our bodies organize experience into myth through the images that take root in our somatic imagination. Inside of our bodies we hold the wisdom to weave personal story into collective pattern. To weave with the mystery in the formation of a new narrative.

In this way, somatic imagination connects us to living myth.

The mythic images inside of us are not fantasy. Working with them is not just for "creative" women. It is our shared birthright as women. Our cultural role

Your body was designed to do this. The somatic unconscious, the image-making faculty, the mythic organizing capacity—it's all there. Waiting for you to remember.

This is Where Myth Comes in.

Feminine Myth Making is where we do that work together.

Inside of Feminine Myth Making you will journey in an intimate slow, sensual and steady creative development intensive with other mythic women and creative entrepreneurs who are committed to birthing the stories that they are here to tell through their deepest embodiment and expression.

This space is not ideal for you if you wanting a technical approach to writing and storytelling. It’s likely not for you if you're needing constant reassurance that your stories and voice matter. You already know that they do and you are done walking this path alone.

Inside of Feminine Myth Making, you will be supported by myself, guest guides, as well as the other women in this space. You’ll receive ongoing and consistent feedback, coaching, and support on key stages of the program.

The Journey

  • We have inherited a mythic story of disconnection, disembodiment, and dislocation. ON a cultural level this can be understood as the wasteland. Patriarchy, colonization, empire, consumerism, structures of destruction and war, all emerged from a story. So many are asleep because it is too much to feel the wasteland this story has created. But the only way into a new story is through our somatic inheritance, which includes the Wasteland.

    Core Work:

    • Identifying personal disconnection from somatic knowing

    • Tending our personal grief and collective grief

    • Recognizing inherited wasteland stories vs. self-determined myths

    • Beginning somatic awareness practices focused on emotional cleansing, resourcing, releasing burdens and capacity building

    • Introduction to the concept of "somatic imagination"

    Practices:

    • Daily body scanning and sensation journaling

    • Mapping the "wasteland" in your life (where you feel disconnected from embodied wisdom)

    • Collecting images/symbols that call to you without understanding why

    • First sharing circle: witnessing each other's starting points

  • As we awaken our bodies capacity for traveling through the cultural wasteland of our collective inheritance, we are simultaneously re-vitalizing our soma through our tears. As the grief moves our somatic imagination comes alive. We begin to connect to our body as myth-maker. We begin to perceive with a wider lens. Our body begins to grow its own vision for the future. Not just our own future, but for a wider ecology of belonging.

    Core Work:

    • Developing relationship with the body's image-making capacity

    • Understanding the difference between societal images, somatic images, and mythic images

    • Learning to trust bodily impulses in creative practice

    • Exploring the feminine as "birthers of culture"

    Practices:

    • Movement-based image generation (dance, gesture, posture exploration)

    • Creating from sensation rather than concept

    • Mirror work and self-witnessing

    • Partnered somatic attunement exercises

  • To be a culture worker or visionary is  not a label we claim for ourselves, it is a path that we walk. This path is inherently mysterious. We cannot know where we are going. We are guided by a deeper story (myth) and we are met with cross roads and detours. We encounter archetypal patterns and initiations. Approaching and entering our own mythic path requires ceremony and ritual as we begin to weave our mythic embodiment out into the world.

    Core Work:

    • Understanding personal myth vs. archetypal patterns

    • Studying how myths organize experience along "the ark of soul initiation"

    • Identifying your soul's initiatory journey

    • Connecting inner experience to outer expression

    Practices:

    • Personal mythology writing/creating

    • Studying mythic patterns that resonate with your experience

    • Ritual creation and enactment

    • Working with symbols that emerge from your body

    Creative Output: Your first "chapter" of personal myth in your chosen medium

  • Theme: We Are Woven

    Core Work:

    • Recognizing patterns in the embodied self that connect to collective mythic body

    • Understanding interwoven nature of personal and collective stories

    • Learning to hold individual experience within larger context

    • Exploring the "somatic unconscious" as shared territory

    Practices:

    • Group mythmaking and co-creation

    • Witnessing and being witnessed in vulnerability

    • Exploring ancestral/lineage connections through the body

    • Creating mythic images in nature or sacred space

  • Wisdom is born through direct experience. As we expand our capacity to receive from the mythic realm, as we root deeper into our somatic inheritance as women, we begin to see beyond our own direct experience. Expanded somatic awareness that is translated through our self-expression and embodiment holds the seeds of wisdom that is transmitted beyond the mind. 

    Core Work:

    • Expanding somatic awareness

    • Understanding disconnection from nature as part of the disconnection from mythic wisdom

    • Developing "mythic images that anchor us to not just our bodies, but the earth’s wisdom

    • exploring how our own direct experience with the mythic shapes our embodiment and authentic expression

    • Activate our voices so that we can be transmissions of mythic wisdom

    Practices:

    • Extended time in nature with somatic attention

    • Earth-based rituals and offerings

    • Listening to what wisdom the mythic is communicating through your body

  • Theme: Embodied Myth as Medicine

    Core Work:

    • Claiming personal self-determined myths as "antidote and remedy to the Wasteland"

    • Understanding creative practice as ongoing initiation

    • Learning to live the myth rather than just create it

    • Integration and emergence

    Practices:

    • Developing sustainable creative ritual practice

    • Sharing your myth/medicine with the world

    • Creating completion ceremonies

    • Visioning forward: how does this mythic work want to continue?

  • Embodying Your Myth Through Movement & Gesture

    Your mythology lives in your body, not just your imagination. This module explores how your personal myth expresses itself through posture, gesture, breath, and somatic patterns. You'll develop a movement vocabulary unique to your mythic identity—discovering how your body wants to prayer, to grieve, to celebrate, to claim space. Through guided movement practices and authentic movement exploration, you'll begin to physicalize the archetypal energies you've been tracking. This becomes the foundation for all embodied creative work that follows.

    Creative Practice: Develop a personal movement ritual that expresses a key scene or turning point in your myth.

  • Crafting Your Visual & Material

    Every myth has its symbolic language—recurring images, materials, colors, and forms that carry meaning. In this module, you'll identify and claim your personal symbolic vocabulary. What images keep appearing in your dreams, your art, your environment? What materials call to you? What colors hold emotional charge? You'll create a living grimoire of your symbols and begin working with them intentionally in your creative practice—not as decoration, but as carriers of soul-level truth.

    Creative Practice: Create a material altar or assemblage that holds the core symbols of your current mythic chapter.

  • Mapping Your Mythic Framework for Teaching & Sharing

    Your personal mythology contains wisdom others need. This module teaches you how to identify the archetypal patterns, plot points, and transformational stages within your story that can become a framework for guiding others. You'll learn to distinguish between what's intimately personal and what's universally resonant—extracting the mythic structure from your lived experience. This is where your mythology becomes methodology: a teaching that can hold others without requiring them to live your exact story.

    Creative Practice: Map your myth as a transformational journey with distinct phases/thresholds that others could recognize in their own lives.

  • Writing & Speaking Your Myth into Being

    Your myth wants to be spoken, written, sung. This module focuses on finding the language that carries your mythology with authenticity and power. You'll explore mythopoetic writing, oracle card creation, personal manifesto work, and the art of speaking from mythos rather than explanation. You'll learn to write in ways that evoke rather than describe, that invite others into imaginal space rather than simply informing them. This is where your myth becomes transmissible.

    Creative Practice: Write your origin myth, create a set of personal oracle cards, or craft a spoken-word piece that carries your mythic essence.

  • Crafting Objects & Offerings That Hold Your Mythos

    Objects carry myth. In this module, you'll learn to create talismans, ritual tools, wearable art, or sacred objects that embody your mythology. Whether you work with fiber, clay, metal, paper, or found objects, you'll discover how to infuse your creative work with intentionality and symbolic meaning. These aren't just beautiful things—they're physical anchors for mythic consciousness, bridges between worlds, and tools for ceremony.

    Creative Practice: Create a ritual object or talisman that represents your mythic identity and can be used in ceremony or worn/carried as a reminder.

  • Designing Your First Mythic Container for Others

    You've lived your myth, mapped it, embodied it, and expressed it. Now you're ready to hold space for others to discover theirs. In this final module, you'll design your first offering—whether that's a workshop, a ceremonial gathering, a course, a retreat, or a creative collaboration. You'll learn how to create containers that honor the slow, soulful pace of mythic work while providing enough structure for transformation. You'll craft invitations, design experiences, and practice holding liminal space for others' becoming.

    Creative Practice: Design and prototype your first mythic offering—complete with structure, ceremony, creative practices, and the framework that makes it uniquely yours.

WHAT YOU WILL WALK AWAY WITH

Your Personal Mythology Unearthed

You'll have descended into your own story—naming the patterns, symbols, and archetypal threads that have shaped you. You'll understand the myth you've been living and the one you're choosing to step into. This becomes the foundation from which all your work emanates.

A Living Practice, Not Just a Method

You'll cultivate a sustainable rhythm for tending your creative and spiritual work—one that honors cycles, seasons, and the body's wisdom. You'll know how to return to your practice when life pulls you away, building capacity for the long devotion your work requires.

An Embodied Story Framework

You'll weave together the myths, symbols, and narratives that give structure to your offerings. This isn't a fixed formula—it's a living framework that evolves with you, allowing you to guide others through transformation while staying rooted in your own becoming.

A Mythic Body of Work

You'll begin building your first offering (or deepening an existing one) with attention to resonance, sustainability, and symbolic integrity. You'll learn to move at the pace of meaning-making, not market pressure—and trust that this depth magnetizes the right people.

Embodied Language That Holds Mystery

You'll discover how to speak about your work in ways that are both clear and evocative—language that invites rather than convinces, that honors complexity without obscuring truth. You'll find your voice beneath the noise of trending frameworks and borrowed vocabularies.

A Devotional Approach to Visibility

You'll create a rhythm for sharing your work that feels like an offering, not an obligation. You'll understand how to build trust and presence without performing or fragmenting yourself across platforms—staying faithful to your creative process while remaining in relationship with your community.

This Offering is for you if

→ You're a woman who is called to thresholds of self-initiation but is also committed to collective liberation, justice, or collective. But you can feel you're still operating from your head, performing for validation, stuck in the very disconnection you're trying to address

→ You have a creative practice (photography, writing, art, movement) that feels like it should mean something deeper, but right now it just feels like "content" and you don't know how to bridge that gap

→ You know intellectually that your body holds wisdom, but you've lived in your mind for so long that you don't know how to actually feel or trust what your body is trying to tell you

→ You've lost your creative voice or never felt you had one. You're always referencing, replicating, or reacting to what others have made rather than trusting what wants to emerge from you

→ You're exhausted by "content creation" culture but don't know what the alternative is. You feel complicit in something extractive but you also want to create and share and connect

→ You want to create work that addresses root causes (patriarchy, colonization, capitalism, racism) but everything you make feels surface-level because you're analyzing from your mind instead of transmuting from your body

→ You feel isolated in this longing, like you're the only one who feels this particular ache to create differently, to live more embodied, to stop performing and start being

→ You want to be part of something intimate and held. You're done with large courses where you're anonymous, where there's no real witnessing, where community means a group of strangers performing connection

→ You're ready to stop asking "what should I create?" and start asking "what wants to be born through me?" but you need guidance, practice, and witnessing to make that shift

→ You have a deep knowing that women have always been culture-makers, story-weavers, and image-birthers, and you want to reclaim that lineage in a way that's authentic to YOU, not performative or romanticized

→ You're ready to commit 6 months to your own unfolding, not because you're broken and need fixing, but because you're ready to become a vessel for the stories that will transform our world.

“Working with Jenny feels like moving across the great river marking life from death, waking from dreaming, or what we hilariously think we know from what we know we don’t know. The embodied, in-mother-nature experience of approaching the river of mystery, entering, being enveloped, swimming, dwelling, deepening, wandering, lingering, all the while moving and crossing, then surfacing, fully emerging, and stepping onto and resting on the other shore. This dynamic in itself, this process, is the sacred stuff.”- Chantell Foss, 5 Rhythms Teacher
