Ever wonder how allies and helpers shape a hero's journey? In this episode, we explore the role of Allies—those friends, companions, and unexpected supporters who lend a hand when it matters most. From Ron and Hermione to the crew of Mission Impossible, we unpack what it means to truly support (or betray) a hero. Tune in for a thoughtful discussion with Ava and Andrew where together, we’ll explore what makes someone an ally, how to spot them and the important role they play on any Hero’s Journey. Enjoy!
