The Hero’s Journey Curriculum
Joseph Campbell was an American mythologist, writer, teacher, and story teller. He created a framework that describes all the stories people tell, including those we tell ourselves. We have adapted this framework so you can use it to overcome large and small difficulties you face in your day to day life. Explore the process by clicking the link below.
