About

 Hello, and welcome to The Happy Turtle-Happiness, one step at a time.

I am Irene, a journalist with a keen interest in women's issues; a writer early in the morning, a mother, most of the time, and a spiritual being forever. I have an academic background in the Classics ( Greek and Roman ), and a past career in home interiors and ecology.

I am passionate about Greek Mythology, its beauty and depth, and the amazing insights it can offer. Ancient Greek thought is so Now!

In December 2020, after one of the most challenging years humanity has faced in recent memory, I have started The Happy Turtle-Happiness, One Step at a Time, podcast, where we discuss

-how Greek Mythology can help you face today's challenges.

-how connecting with female archetypes of Greek Mythology can awaken parts of you and empower you,

-what you can learn from women in the European tradition and the way they speak to your experience,

-how to connect to your feminine side in the context of society, so that you feel more assertive when facing conditioning, and stay true to yourself,

-how to feel whole as a person, and at home inside and outside yourself, even when life is so messy and it's hard to find a moment to connect to You!

There are so many ways Ancient Greek thought and Mythology can help us raise our awareness and harness our power! In times of transition such as these, we need to discover our truths in our ancestral traditions.

I encourage you to go ahead and subscribe to my podcast. Every Monday you'll start the week with the best of Greek Mythology, with insights to help you understand and face current challenges. Take a moment to connect, awaken your power and start your week like an Amazon.

Please share with me what you need and what you want to know about. I am here to facilitate this journey.

Ερρωσθε και ευδαιμονείτε!

Be healthy and strong and have good fortune!

Irene
