S3E9 - From the Mouths of Babes

In this episode Chris discusses a nightmare that the psychologist Jordan Peterson's nephew shared with him. It was a typical childhood nightmare full of fear and frightening imagery, but it held a deeper meaning. Jordan describes the psychological meaning and symbolism of the dream and how he empowered his nephew to overcome his fear. I tell this story in order to tell another. My 6-year-old daughter told me a story about "fairies," which struck me with the same kind of psychological and philosophical force. It makes me ask the question, what is the Unconscious? And, is there something more to our dreams and fantasies than random, meaningless ideas and images?  Enjoy ;)
