My first introduction to archetypes was with Jane Dunnewold in Creative Strength Training 2018. There was so much information to absorb and decipher. There was a hunt for your own archetypes; so many choices to investigate to find which ones fit who you thought you were. I found it bewildering, confusing and frustrating. Flummox represents those initial perplexing feelings swirling around. Fast forward to Creative Strength Training 2022, which was interactive, 2018 was not. I learned more, absorbed more and discovered my personal eight. Knowing myself better and understanding where some behavior originates helps me be kinder to myself, and be a better self.
