The Olympic Family

In this episode of The Olympic Family, Harmonia introduces us to Apollo: god of music, prophecy, medicine, poetry, archery, and radiant expectations. From his dramatic birth to his flawless performances, Apollo seems like the perfect god--but perfection has its price.
As Harmonia peels back his golden reputation, we discover the pressure he places on himself, the grief behind the music, and the tragedies that follow him like shadows at noon.
Next time, we meet the only one fast enough to escape his orbit: his twin sister, Artemis.

In this episode of The Olympic Family, Harmonia tells the story of Artemis--the goddess of the hunt, the moon, and the unapologetic right to say no. Born just moments before her twin Apollo, Artemis chose a different life: one of wild places, fierce protection, and sacred boundaries.
We follow her from the sacred groves of Delos to the myths that made mortals tremble--and learn how silence can be powerful, how clarity can be dangerous, and how strength sometimes looks like walking away.
Next time: the god who dances in through the back door--Dionysus.

In this episode of The Olympic Family, Harmonia invites us into the wild and wondrous world of Dionysus--the god of transformation, theater, mystery, and joy that walks the edge of madness. Born twice, raised in secret, and mocked by the Olympians, Dionysus didn't demand a throne--he danced into one.
We follow his myth through laughter and loss, masks and meaning, and a shipful of pirates who learned (the hard way) what happens when you underestimate a barefoot boy on the beach.
Next time: the age of Titans begins, and the world meets Cronus.

In this episode of The Olympic Family, I, Harmonia, take you back to the age before the Olympians, when my uncle Cronus ruled as king of the Titans. You'll hear how he rose to power, the prophecy that haunted him, and the terrible choice that became his greatest mistake. Along the way, I'll share what his story taught me about fear, change, and the turning of time. And just wait -- because next time, you'll meet my grandmother Rhea, whose quiet defiance changed everything.

Before Olympus, there was Rhea -- the Titaness who gave birth to the gods and outwitted their devouring father, Cronus. In this episode of The Olympic Family, I, Harmonia, tell you how my grandmother used silence as strategy and patience as power. You'll hear about her secret plan to save Zeus, her quiet heartbreak, and what became of her after the war was won. This is a story of courage without thunder, strength without spotlight -- and the mother behind every Olympian name you know.

Because even the gods have issues.
