Episode notes
Podcast Creates A Jungian Ripple
- Norman Buckley says the podcast expanded his Jung education and created a ripple effect through sharing with friends.
- He frames Jung as a life-orientation, saying, “When people ask me if I'm religious… I say, well, I'm a Jungian.”
Synchronicity Led To Lifelong Analysis
- Norman recounts discovering Jung via a documentary during personal grief and teaching himself from pocket editions while isolated in Poland.
- That sequence of synchronicities led him into long-term analysis and deeply shaped his life and career choices.
Analysis Is Transformational Relationship Work
- Norman emphasizes Jungian analysis as a deep, relational, long-term practice rather than a quick fix.
- He credits sustained analysis with personal transformation and creative flourishing for himself and his husband.
