LIVING MYTH PODCAST
Latest Free Episode
Traditionally, elders lead by remembering further back than others and by seeing more clearly ahead. Although growing older can involve a loss of short term memory, elders remember the essential values and the enduring truths that people keep forgetting. The archetype of the elder exists in the depths of each person’s soul where it is connected to the deepest ideals of humanity.

MICHAEL MEADE
Meade is a renowned storyteller, author, and scholar of mythology, anthropology, and psychology. He is the founder of the Mosaic Multicultural Foundation and the creator of the Living Myth Podcast.
OUR MISSION
At a critical time on Earth, Mosaic offerings bring the medicine of myth and story in ways that inspire creative imagination and enduring hope at individual and collective levels of life.
Drawing upon decades of “hands on” work in the trenches of healing and transformation, Mosaic presentations and practices bring deeply intuitive and intensely imaginal approaches to pressing personal and societal issues.
Mosaic’s Living Myth presentations and publications demonstrate how each person, regardless of age or background, is imbued with genius and able to contribute to a transformation of life on Earth.
Participants learn to transform personal struggles and traumas into creative expressions that bring meaning and purpose to individual lives and also contribute to greater sense of genuine human community.
OUR VISION
At critical moments in history mythic imagination tries to return to our awareness in order to reveal the capacities for renewal that are inherent to nature and to the soul of humanity.
Without mythic imagination, we are unable to envision ourselves as having meaning and being able to contribute to the work of healing both nature and human cultures.
“Amidst the radical changes and polarization of modern life something ancient and knowing keeps trying to catch up to us.”
