Leaps of Faith; Fear, Courage & Facing the Void

Today’s topic is void leaping - the process of taking a leap of faith and stepping into the unknown, which can be empowering and terrifying in equal measure. We explore how this applies to entrepreneurship, and I spend some time introducing myself and my background and explaining why this theme is so close to my heart.

We talk about a couple of mythological stories offering different perspectives on this theme, including Icarus (the well-known cautionary tale which I argue is far more relevant to the juvenile masculine than the mature feminine) and Cedna - a dark and powerful story of transformation.

We also look at void leaping through a tantric lens. “Reclaiming the feminine” is a huge topic right now - let’s examine why cultivating a strong inner masculine is also crucial if you want to be able to hold yourself through the fear and uncertainty of stepping into the void.
