## What is My Hero's Journey?

Every life has the shape of a story, whether or not you're the one writing it down. My Hero's Journey gives you one structure for both — a map for the story you're writing, or the one you're already living.

The twelve-stage pattern behind countless myths, legends, and modern stories — mapped by Joseph Campbell, developed further by Christopher Vogler — becomes a single circular map that fill s in as you go: twelve stages, eight archetypal roles (mentor, ally, shadow, threshold guardian, and more), drawn like a woodcut and lit stage by stage.

Turn it toward your own life, and it becomes a place to ask real questions. Where do you actually stand right now? Who's walking with you, and who's testing you at the threshold? The app never diagnoses you and never tells you who you are — it only asks, and holds space for whatever you answer. Every question that opens onto something difficult sits beside a way out of it: a resource you already have, a person you could call, one small thing you could do this week. My Hero's Journey is a tool for creative reflection and self-understanding, not a substitute for therapy or professional mental health care.

Turn it toward fiction, and it becomes a plotting workshop. Build a novel, a screenplay, or a game stage by stage, and assign your characters an archetype scene by scene — a mentor can turn shapeshifter by the third act. Alongside your own beats sits a library of world mythology and folklore, each entry told in its own words and credited to its own tradition: Norse, Greek, Sumerian, Japanese, Akan, Mande, Polynesian, and more.

Once a journey holds enough written reflection, two optional readings become available: a Mythic Interpretation, reading your material back through myth, archetype, and depth psychology, and Strengthening the Story, an editorial read on plot, pacing, and character arc, naming what's underwritten and how to strengthen it. Two readings come included with the app; further ones are available afterward. Both require your explicit consent before anything is sent anywhere.

Everything else — every stage, every figure, every page — stays on your device. There's no account, and nothing else is collected.

When a cycle is complete, export it: a private PDF, a text document, or a single shareable card. Or don't. The map itself is the point.
