Matthew Harris is a long-time teacher, storyteller, workshop presenter and writer who lives and works in the beautiful Byron Bay region of New South Wales, Australia. He writes inspirational articles and gives workshops on the Hero’s Journey, spirituality, and personal transformation. He helps people find inspiration, purpose and meaning by helping them appreciate their own heroic and noble journeys in life. Matthew experienced his own Hero’s Journey encountering extended periods of illness, depression, and poverty. He now sees this as an Initiation experience, eventually, leading him into breakthroughs that brought about his emergence, into his gifts, talents and wisdom. He has been interested in mythology, spirituality, and the archetypal path since childhood. He now combines these elements to provide a roadmap for human growth, transformation, and fulfilment. Matthew provides workshops, retreats and courses in writing, spiritual expansion, and finding and applying the Hero’s Journey in your daily life. His courses and programs provide participants access to their inherent wisdom and power, and fulfils their basic need for self-value, self-appreciation, and purpose.
