What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This is a wonderful public service not only to therapists and analysts but to anyone interested in philosophy, healing, and human potential. I listen to these talks on repeat. The UFO/alien discussions—while occasionally interesting—begin to feel a bit convoluted in a Jungian context, though. Especially when it gets into subterranean reptile species and other sci-if hypotheses. It would be much more prudent to keep the focus on the brilliant Jungians who agree to interviews.

Thank you, Laura and Cedrus, for a perfectly beautiful exchange. Having accompanied my own mother through her transition, this episode moved me deeply. Profound. Healing.

I certainly enjoy the content but found it very distracting that the host would show a book (to a YouTube audience?) but not tell the podcast audience what it is.

I really don’t know what’s more special, this show and the work Laura is doing sharing Jung’s work, ethos and spirit…..Or the fact that In his definition, I’ve found this show and Jung’s work in the most definitive example of synchronicity I’ve ever experienced in my life. I’m speechless on what this has done for me in my life. It’s the breath of fresh air I’ve been seeking for years and a lifetime. Thank you, thank you, thank you Laura. And even more so to Dr. Carl Jung. 🙏

Loved loved loved the interviews with Jungian analysts. However, the “Quarantine Series” makes no sense at all. You’ve captured the attention of folks interested in Jung (hence, the podcast title), and are now interviewing arrogant astrological quacks who claim (with absolutely zero evidence) to be able to do things like predict the future, and who have no credibility in any scientific field whatsoever - yet repeatedly claim to be a “scientist” in the interview. SoJ interviews used to start by asking the interviewee how they came to be an analyst, and sometimes discussion about what training was like. Maybe the same can be done with folks who have expertise in . . . Fortune Telling? Someone knowledgeable about Jung’s work in the paranormal would recognize where and why he “pulled back” from certain subject matters or refused to make definitive claims about certain phenomena. Starfire Tor is the perfect example of what gives Jungians (unjustifiably) a bad name. (I should note that I LOVED the interview with Rick Levine - an astrologer worthy of immense respect because he knows when people are taking these ideas into the realm of delusion and how to keep them embedded properly in context.) If you want to offer suggestions or polite critiques to Laura via email or Facebook - spare yourself. She responds very defensively, and will apparently block you for even the gentlest remark.
