In this episode, Julie Peters explores a therapeutic and archetypal perspective on K Pop Demon Hunters where the Honmoon represents the barrier between the conscious and unconscious mind, the demons are exiles, and the Hunters are IFS parts protecting, managing, and firefighting suppressed unconscious material (like shame).

In this special episode of Popcorn Therapy, Julie reads a story from her new book Maiden, Warrior, Mother, Crone. This is a reimagining of Persephone's story based in myth and history that brings forth her agency and queenliness. Edited from live, you'll also hear discussion and questions from the participants listening all about the story and the book and Julie's experience writing this book. Maiden, Warrior, Mother, Crone, published by Verbena Books, is filled with stories about the divine feminine from all over the world. Goddesses and figures from folklore teach us about the archetypes of Maiden, Warrior, Mother, and Crone. Pick it up wherever you get books, and stay tuned for more storytime in the future.

With thanks to Ruthanne, Stephen, Mary, Mindy, and Kitty, who generously gave me permission to use their comments and questions in this recording.

This story is also inspired by a version by Natalie Rousseau, who you can hear on several episodes of Popcorn Therapy. See the book Lost Goddesses of Ancient Greece by Charlene Spretnak for more.

In this episode we discuss Pixar's Elemental, the first romance to come from the animation studio. Wade and Ember give fantastic examples of secure and avoidant attachment and let us think about our own romantic styles and how to work with them more effectively, especially when there is an intergenerational aspect to those styles.

This is a little follow up to my earlier episode on It Ends With Us, a film starring Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni. In addition to the content of the film, which is a romance about domestic violence, there has been a lot of drama surrounding what happened during filming and who created a smear campaign against whom. This episode isn't about the details or who is right/wrong, but rather about what it's like to be a part of this drama as a viewer/consumer.

It Ends With Us is a film based on the book of the same name by Colleen Hoover. The genre is romance, but the content is domestic violence, which feels somewhat dissonant. We talk about DV, healing from trauma, and how It Ends With Us does some things right and some things very, very wrong. Plus a little actor drama.
