Escaping the Eternal Girl – Carl Jung’s Missing Chapter

Why do so many women, even after building careers, families, and lives that seem "successful" from the outside, still feel a haunting sense of incompleteness inside?
Why does stepping fully into adulthood sometimes feel like a betrayal of something vital and bright within?

In today’s video, we answer the question many of you have quietly, urgently asked:
How do we escape the hidden grip of the Puella Aeterna—the Eternal Girl?

Rooted in the profound insights of Carl Jung, expanded by Marie-Louise von Franz, and deepened through the voices of thinkers like Clarissa Pinkola Estés, this conversation is not about judging the parts of you that long to stay safe, innocent, or free—it’s about understanding how those longings can quietly become cages.
