Archetypes are universal patterns of energy, behavior, and motivation that appear across cultures, mythology, psychology, and lived experience. They show up in stories, leaders, healers, artists, and teachers—and they live within us.
Although the concept of archetypes can feel abstract at first, most of us recognize them intuitively. We see them every day. They are woven into culture and into lived experience.
When I first learned about archetypes, it took me time to fully understand them. And yet, something about them resonated deeply. Archetypes give language to something we already feel.
