In this special episode of Legendary Life, we celebrate the new Star Wars movie the Force Awakens by taking a deeper look into Star Wars and the lessons we can learn from these powerful movies to improve our own lives. When we talk about Star Wars, we are really talking about The Hero’s Journey–the themes that are common to all human cultures and myths.
And to talk about that, we need to talk about the famous mythologist Joseph Campbell. You’ll hear clips of Joseph Campbell and scenes from Star Wars to illustrate the trials, tribulations and lessons from The Hero’s Journey and how they are relevant to us. For the story of every human life is the story of heroes. In a way, we are all heroes. But not all of of heed the call to adventure.
Learn about the power of mindset, mentors and training and how being a hero means dedicating yourself to something bigger than your immediate experience of life.
