Disruption, creative edges, and the fairy tale "Tatterhood"
Episode 8
Friday, 6 March, 2026

Send Catherine a text MessageThe Norwegian fairy tale of "Tatterhood" begins as many stories do, with a kingdom that lacks something essential. Each of us lives in a fairy tale kingdom or two, in an orderly system of protocols and social rules that structure both outer and inner worlds. The stability of the kingdom is important. And yet, the structure eventually outlives its usefulness. The old order stagnates, degrades, and loses meaning. The boundaries are too tight and the space feels too small. Because life = change.Something new, something radical, is needed to catalyze a necessary renewal.Support the showEmail Catherine at drcsvehla@mythicmojo.comPost a positive review on apple podcasts!
