Why Listen?

When is enough truly enough—and why does it so often feel like it isn't?

In this episode of Jung at Harp, Jungian Psychoanalyst Kathleen Wiley and Grammy-nominated composer and performer Deborah Henson-Conant explore the powerful and often challenging question of "enoughness." Why do so many of us feel the need to prove ourselves, defend ourselves, compare ourselves, or constantly strive for more? What happens when we begin to let go of that struggle?

Through conversation, reflection, and curiosity, Kathleen and Deborah examine the emotional, psychological, and cultural forces that shape our sense of worth. Together, they explore what it means to feel enough, why that feeling can be so difficult to hold onto, and how releasing the need for constant validation may open the door to greater freedom and self-acceptance.
