Archetypes


This week COLAB team Lattice talked about Archetypes, conversation sparked by an article found by Allison. I’m not sure what each Lattice member’s Archetype is, but we do have a family dynamic forming. The way I see things as of now in the Lattice family:

Heather: The loving mother who watches our backs, bakes us cookies and makes sure we have a ride to school in the morning and get to our cars safely at night
Allison: The responsible older sister who cares for the family with mom because dad left us for another woman, while juggling school, relationships and a social life
Whitney: The confident sister who lets you borrow her cool clothes and teaches you how to put on mascara
Melissa: The artsy aunt who lets you pierce your belly button when your mom says no
Me: The crazy Grandma that gives you ugly Christmas sweaters and carries pictures of her cats in her wallet

(please note: this is an over simplification of the Lattice family, dynamics are ever-changing and we all wear multiple hats)
