      In this episode of the Be Your Own Dang Hero podcast, host Pauline McKinney discusses the final chapter of the Hero's Journey: the return.

      Titled 'Returns and Homecomings,' this episode explores the ways heroes share their newfound knowledge after completing their journeys.

      Pauline outlines three paths heroes might take: keeping the knowledge to themselves, selling it, or sharing it selectively to make a positive impact. She emphasizes that there's no right or wrong path, encouraging listeners to follow what feels right for them.

      The episode also touches on personal growth, the power of example, and the impact of sharing one's story.

      Pauline invites listeners to share their experiences and hints at exciting future episodes that will delve deeper into real-life applications of the Hero's Journey.
