Sunlight streams through arched doorways, casting shadows on glossy marble floors in a minimalist, muted pink hallway.

About Myth and Mastery

This isn’t just a platform. It’s a structure shaped by emotional architecture. It didn’t begin with a mission, but with a moment standing in a corridor no one notices, hearing a voice no one remembers. It’s crafted by someone who’s spent a life inside buildings: behind locked doors, down in the basement, beneath dimmed lights, but rarely quite inside. A resident caretaker. An observer by nature. Present and seldom seen.

Myth and Mastery is for those who’ve walked through places that asked for too much, or gave too little. It’s for those who appreciate storytelling and notice the subtleties of their surroundings.

And for those who’ve been overlooked. For those who take and those who hold.

Why I built this

It began with a feeling, balanced on a landing where footsteps rarely fall, as though the building was keeping something back.

Over time, I started to notice what buildings remember and how they embody lived architecture. The way they absorb presence. The way silence lingers longer in some rooms.

Myth and Mastery was born from those observations. Not to fix, preach, or perform, but to trace the quiet structures that hold us and to engage in storytelling that names what usually goes unnamed.

From that quiet beginning, Myth and Mastery took form - not as a platform, but as a framework for seeing and understanding.

A Voice Beneath the Surface

Each episode begins with a quiet curiosity:
what do our buildings, stories, and silences reveal about affective architecture?

Through fictionalised storytelling and spoken reflection, the podcast listens closely to what’s often missed; giving voice to what lingers between the lines.

For whom?

For those who see too much and say too little.
For thinkers, wanderers, and workers.
For anyone drawn to narrative as a way to make sense of what has no name.

Where to listen:

Available on all major podcast platforms.

Substack: Myth and Mastery Notes

Dispatches from the Quiet Room

It’s less polished, more personal — a place where ideas are tested and language is allowed to stretch.

For whom?

For those who want to linger longer.
For readers who value intimacy, rawness, and thought-in-motion.
For those who understand that unfinished isn’t the same as untrue.

Workers and Witnesses: A living gallery of the overlooked

We’ve all worked with them. Maybe we’ve been them — the ones who stay after the lights go out, who hold things together without needing to be seen. These are their stories, and maybe yours too.

Workers and Witnesses explores the experiential architecture behind people, spaces, and buildings; the presences and archetypes who maintain, guard, fix, observe, and carry what others pass through.

They are not content.
They are characters.
They are real.

This work honours those who see what others miss, and make space for what the world forgets.

Books: Stories held in walls. Voices behind the system.

Workers and Witnesses: A living gallery of the overlooked

The books emerging from Myth and Mastery are not manuals. They are structures; quiet frameworks for dwelling with what we notice, carry, and endure.

They explore work, space, systems, and self, particularly for those who spend their lives just outside the centre of things. Buildings as memory. Infrastructure as metaphor. Stories as shelter.

Some are essays. Some are reflections. Some are difficult to categorise.

All are concerned with presence, power, and the unseen labour that holds the world together.

What Holds Here

The Architecture of Presence

Myth and Mastery isn’t here to perform or accumulate.

It’s a structure of inner geometry — quiet, intentional, built to hold.

This work makes space for stories that don’t demand resolution, for archetypes that reveal rather than explain, and for memories that linger in places no one thought to look.

It’s for those who notice — the ones who stay behind to turn off the lights, who’ve always been part of the room but never quite in the picture.

This isn’t a platform.
It’s the geometry of presence, told through story.

Rooms and Archetypes

The Architecture of Presence

This is not just a story; it’s an interior of meaning.

Like any structure, Myth and Mastery has rooms; spaces shaped for listening, witnessing, remembering, and rest.

Within them gather figures: the observer, the invisible one, the keeper, the cartographer — figures who are always present, often essential, and rarely acknowledged.

You may recognise yourself in more than one room. You may move between them. And if you’ve ever felt unseen, over-tuned, or under-heard, there is space for you here.

You don’t need to knock.
Just enter.

Themes We Walk With

The Architecture of Presence

Themes We Walk With

Certain themes return here quietly, like footsteps in a long hallway.

Belonging.
Being.
Permission.
The hidden room.
Emotional architecture.
Invisible architecture.
Architecture of wisdom.
Endurance.
Maintenance.
Thresholds.
Witnessing.

They aren’t conclusions. They’re companions — ways of moving through space, work, power, care, and the parts of ourselves that remain when no one is watching.

What lives here and who visits

This isn’t a place for more doing.

It’s not here to optimise your time, sharpen your edge, or fix what was never broken. It’s a space for resting in what’s already here and embracing the emotional architecture of our experiences.

Myth and Mastery offers quiet recognition that you’re not alone in what you notice. That someone else saw it too. That maybe, just maybe, it matters.

Through storytelling, our narratives begin to connect, and a shared journey comes into view.

This is not self-help. It’s sovereignty. A place to dwell, and stay a while.
