About this listen

As you face the new year (and possibly Sunday blues today), you might be questioning your sense of purpose, direction, and life’s meaning. This is an episode to help you through this time of transition, which often feels crushingly paralyzing. Inspired by none other than the great psychiatrist and Holocaust survivor, Dr. Viktor Frankl, sit back and explore with me the world of existentialism.


Topics Discussed:

  • Why finding your life’s purpose is important
  • What does having purpose mean?
  • Viktor Frankl’s logotherapy
  • Philosophers: Nietzsche, Dostoevsky, Schopenhauer
  • Jacques Lacan’s meaning of Love
  • Love your failures
