Metaphors, Magic and Creativity with Taran Cardone

In this episode, I am talking to Dr. Taran Cardone, who has an extensive background in higher education and a passion for forming and facilitating learning communities that combine personal and group coaching. Taran's mission is to help individuals rediscover their magic and embrace their authentic selves. She is also the host of the Memes, Metaphors, and Magic podcast.

We are discussing the fascinating world of metaphors and their connection to creativity, and how metaphors allow individuals to express complex emotions and thoughts by drawing parallels with other topics or mediums.

Reflecting on her dissertation, Taran discusses the profound insights derived from studying metaphors as embodied experiences. She believes that life is an artistic process and that education, too, is an artful endeavor.
