In this episode, host BT delves into the deeper meanings behind the Disney film Moana, connecting it to ancient mythologies and the principles of Jungian psychology. He discusses how Moana represents a modern myth of individuation, the journey of self-discovery, and the integration of the shadow self. The conversation explores the ocean's significance as a symbol of the unconscious, the role of guides in the hero's journey, and the healing that comes from recognizing and embracing one's true self.
