Know Thy Soul
Know Thy Soul is a podcast about the journey home to ourselves, to the divine, and to the wisdom within waiting to be remembered.
Hosted by Jennifer Maura DePascale, each episode draws from myth, fairy tale, scripture, symbolism, ancient spiritual traditions, personal reflection, and conversations to uncover the timeless patterns woven through the world's great stories and spiritual traditions, and what they reveal about our lives today.
Together, we'll explore questions of meaning, healing, consciousness, relationship, and our direct connection to the divine. Through ancient stories and modern insights, we'll discover what these enduring patterns can teach us about ourselves, our world, and the journey from exile to wholeness.
Join us as we explore the lifelong journey of knowing thy soul.
🎙️ New episodes are released every Tuesday.
