About this listen

In this intimate conversation, host Cynthia Marks turns the mic on herself to share the love story and life lessons behind And Now Love. She recounts meeting psychoanalyst Dr. Bernard Bail at age 92, the dream that foretold their partnership, and how dreamwork helped her peel back imprints and find her true voice. With Dr. Loren Weiner, Cynthia traces Bail’s arc—from WWII POW to paradigm-challenging analyst—showing how his experiences shaped a theory that the “war inside” must be healed to end the wars outside. They reflect on spirit, courage, and why genuine love is action, not lip service. Cynthia offers raw, moving examples of dreams that expose locked-in patterns, and the freedom that comes from naming what love is (and isn’t). The episode also explores Bail’s battles for intellectual openness in psychoanalysis and his insistence on women’s equal place at the table. It’s a tender, candid look at the man, the method, and the marriage that sparked this podcast—and an invitation to look within.
