Welcoming the return of the neo-Jungian thinker, psychotherapist and cog-sci wizard, Anderson Todd, centered on the phenomenon of synchronicity—those moments of meaningful coincidence that seem to transcend causality.
He joins Tim Adalin to dialogue on how synchronicity can be nurtured through trust, intentional design, and a willingness to engage with life’s mysteries, even as technology challenges our sense of reality.
