About Once Upon a Mind

Fairy tales are often dismissed as simple bedtime stories for children, but their roots run deep in the collective psyche, carrying timeless wisdom, emotional healing, and transformative power. Fairy tales are rich in archetypes and symbolism, connecting us to universal human experiences. This podcast explains how characters like the hero, the trickster, or the wicked witch represent parts of ourselves, while journeys through dark forests or climbing towers mirror our personal struggles and growth. These elements help listeners understand their own challenges
