About this listen
Welcome to Folklore & Flourish.
In today’s episode, we enter The Sacrifice—the quiet and costly dimension of love. Across cultures and mythic traditions, love is not only feeling. It is offering. It is surrender. It is choosing another’s good when it costs something real.
Drawing from Hindu, Norse, Greek, and Yoruba traditions, today’s stories reveal love that pays a price: devotion that risks everything, loyalty that endures loss, and hearts that give without guarantee of return. These myths do not romanticize suffering. Instead, they ask a deeper question: when is sacrifice sacred—and when does it become self-erasure?
This episode invites reflection on what love asks of us, and what it does not. Where is the line between generosity and depletion? Between devotion and disappearance?
Rooted in folklore, spirituality, and reflective practice, today’s episode creates space to consider the weight of love’s cost—and the dignity of choosing it consciously.
This podcast honors stories as they were told and the wisdom they carry, offering space for reflection, reverence, and discernment.
