    Sophie Strand | Rewilding Mythology, Mary Magdalene, & Becoming Compost

    Sophie is a writer and poet who blends spirituality, storytelling, and ecology to reimagine ancient myths for the modern world. She is the author of two books: The Flowering Wand, a collection of essays aimed at rewinding the sacred masculine, and her new book, The Madonna Secret, a historical novel about Mary Magdalene, which offers a retelling of the story of Christianity, that is perhaps more accurate than many other versions which have been distorted by various religious and political agendas. Sophie is one of my favorite writers and one of the smartest people I know. And I hope you enjoy this episode. Sophie's books Sophie's Instagram Join Mystic Poets Society: A Virtual Writing Club
