E 15 Do Dreams Mean Anything? Understanding What Happens While We Sleep

Most of us dream every night—but we rarely stop to ask what those dreams might mean, or if they matter at all.In this episode, I sit down with my professor of dream studies, Linda Mastrangelo, to explore what’s actually happening while we sleep. We talk about why dreams occur, how they relate to our waking lives, and whether they can offer insight into what we’re processing emotionally and psychologically.We also explore how different cultures have worked with dreams throughout history, and how modern approaches to dreamwork invite curiosity rather than rigid interpretation.This is a grounded, accessible conversation for anyone who’s ever woken up wondering, “What was that about?”—and wants a deeper understanding of the role dreams play in our lives.To connect and find out more about Linda, you can reach her at www.lightningtreetherapy.com.Please like and subscribe to the podcast!
