Artist, Merchant, Seeker; Making Work Sacred

episode 298 | Jul 21, 2026 | 92min
In this conversation with Ewan Townhead we explore a richer and more meaningful understanding of work, inviting us beyond conventional career narratives and into a deeper relationship with our unique gifts, purpose, and contribution. Drawing on the archetypes of the Artist, Merchant, and Seeker, we examine their gifts and shadows, their role in business and culture, and how imaginal practices can help us reclaim suppressed aspects of ourselves in service of a more authentic and purposeful way of living and working.
