EP 10: Finding Meaning, Dr. Samir Mahmoud on Beauty, Love, and the Psychology of the Divine

Join me on this episode as I sit down with Dr. Sameer Mahmood to explore where psychology, spirituality, and love converge through an Islamic lens. We reflect on Freud and Jung and what we have learnt from these two, but keep coming back to how Islamic wisdom grounds our understanding of the soul, the modern search for meaning, and the way beauty awakens true love. Dr. Sameer and I dive into why lived experience matters, and how balancing our vertical relationship with the Divine and our horizontal bonds with each other opens the door to genuine purpose and connection.You can find Dr Samir on:Website: https://www.samirmahmoud.com/ He has alot of content available on YouTube as well.You can find me on:Website: https://nouraamkieh.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nafsandtherapy
