- Dr. James Hollis is a Jungian analyst, a former director of the Jung Society of Washington, DC, and a professor of Jungian Studies for Saybrook University of San Francisco/Houston. He is the author of The Middle Passage, Living an Examined Life, Through the Dark Wood, and Living Between Worlds, among many others. With Sounds True, he’s released the expansive audio program A Life of Meaning: Exploring Our Deepest Questions and Motivations. In this episode of Insights at the Edge, Tami Simon speaks with James about the journey for personal fulfillment-how it starts, what it demands, and how it changes your life. James explains what it really means to take responsibility for your life’s path, as well as how you can rediscover and reclaim your innate authority. Tami and James discuss how childhood experiences shape our present behaviour and what it takes to live fearlessly. Finally, they talk about overcoming lethargy and the joy of becoming comfortable with mysteries.

I woke up one day and I had no idea who I was . My midlife crisis. I started reading James Hollis books. It helped me find my way through this horrifically terrifying period in my life. Love this man🌈🌷🥰

Can I ask you which book you would recommend?
@@mariadelmardospasos Hi. The Middle Passage. Swamplands of the Soul. ❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹
This man is so wonderful, and without ego. Makes so much sense.
I have tremendous gratitude for Dr. Jim Hollis and his willingness to sit down at the computer after a long day of seeing patients and writing what he knows to be true. His words, books, interviews, and visits to the Seattle Jung Society have given me some practical guideposts in which to navigate this thing called life just a little bit better❤.
I ❤ James Hollis, his books have helped me so much more than therapy.
Can you share which one of his book worked so well for you🙏Thanks
@@saraa329 The Middle Passage, Living an Examined Life, and Finding Meaning in the Second Half of Life were all so helpful for me. I would recommend any and all of those books. All the best to you! ❤
The Eden project!
Great interview. Dr Hollis is an inspiration. His books and talks are an amazing source of wisdom. I attended a day event in London in 2016 which was an unforgettable occasion.

Thank you, Tammy, for this wonderful interview with Jim Hollis. I shake my head and sigh at the relevance in my own life and so many others in my world. I have passed it on. Happy birthday to you as you begin a new decade.

Worth every minute!❤ a must!
If you believe it will work out, you'll see opportunities. if you believe it won't, you’ll see obstacles.
Much Love from a Law Of Attraction CZcamsr 💜
If you can see the obstacles,
you won't trip over them.
There have thusfar been nearly 8,000 views, but only 300+ "likes" and 11 comments. I often wonder about the reasons why so few people share their feedback to, in particular, videos such as this one, which provide so many wonderful and significant insights. I am aware that, in my own case, I similarly refrain from even sharing my feelings by taking 5 seconds to "like" videos. I am confident the number of likes represents but a small fraction of the viewers who do like this video. I'm hopeful that the people who have put in the effort to produce them are not discouraged by such a small % of views giving their feedback. I do not know the reasons behind this, but I suspect it is due to some combination of fear of expressing views publicly, overloading of information stimuli, and a sense that likes and comments are relatively meaningless. If anyone else has some additional perspectives, please do reply. I would love to learn what others think about this interesting question.
To one point you make, I hit like on videos that I plan to listen to again. Thank you for your thoughtful sharing here!
I think many people are full of fear and stay on the sidelines. May they step over the threshold because it is lovely when one does.
Wonderful podcast 👏
Thank you both!
My name’s Hollis too
7:00 as an approach/lead up to the direct mentioning of the video title.
Wonderful thank you 🙂😇❣
Period of life without meaning? You mean for some that's just a phase?
