September 08, 2025 Ep 919 - Dear Chip... Happy Birthday, Aquarian Soul
Glenn Ostlund's Psychology Today Profile

A man writes a letter to his younger self at the moment of birth. Dear Chip – Chapter Two is a fiction-as-self-therapy meditation: piercing cries, blossoming lungs, controlled hallucinations, attachment theory, and the first grooves of trust and independence. Blending neuroscience, modern folklore, and lived experience, this lyrical and provocative reflection explores how realities diverge, how belief seeps in unnoticed, and how early wounds echo as lifelong patterns. It invites listeners to reconsider their own first breath — not as a single cry, but as the opening chord of a lifelong symphony.

September 07, 2025 Ep 918 - Dear Chip 01: The Point of Conception
Glenn Ostlund's Psychology Today Profile

Before the Infant. Before the Throne. There was a sperm, an egg, a single cell then two. This is a letter written to this two.
A man writes a letter to his younger self at the point of conception. Dear Chip – Chapter One is a fiction-as-self-therapy origin story: zinc sparks, cosmic eggs, parts-work, and the simple compass to live and to love. Blending science, myth, and psychology, this intelligent and provocative meditation challenges how we think about beginnings and what it means to be alive. It invites listeners to reimagine their own origin story with curiosity, courage, and wonder.
