This episode is part of a new series, Jung in the World B-Sides, where we go off-road to explore the rugged psychological terrain of our current culture. This episode is part 2 of our interview with Hilde Lynn Helphenstein. Part 1 “Know thyself”—from Socrates to Shakespeare, this wisdom echoed across centuries. But the digital age is turning it inside out. As online influencers rise to fame, persona is overtaking the self. The obsession with self-representation has eclipsed the drive to be true to oneself. What does it mean to live your life as someone else? In this two-part interview, host Patricia Martin talks with the infamous Jerry Gogosian—real name Hilde Helphenstein—about the hidden psychological costs of her seven-year experiment living as her persona and how she clawed her identity back.

Patricia Martin and Connie Zweig discuss the nature of shadow work. Before doing shadow work, we live an unexamined life – overeating, criticizing yourself or your partner, blaming someone, procrastinating – which leads to uncontrollable, self-sabotaging behaviors.

Her award-winning book, The Inner Work of Age: Shifting from Role to Soul , extends Shadow-work into midlife and beyond and explores aging as a spiritual practice. Her book, Meeting the Shadow on the Spiritual Path: The Dance of Darkness and Light in Our Search for Awakening , extends shadow-work into religion and spirituality.

The author of the acclaimed introduction to the practice of Jungian psychology, Boundaries of the Soul , June Singer draws from personal and professional experience to discuss the importance of dreams, those gifts from the unconscious which profoundly imbue our conscious lives.

June Singer, PhD was a major figure in the development of the Jungian movement in the United States. She earned a Ph.D. in Psychology from Northwestern University and completed training as a Jungian analyst in Zurich, Switzerland. During the 1960′s, Dr. Singer founded the Analytical Psychology Club of Chicago, which eventually became the C.G. Jung Institute of Chicago, in order to provide interested individuals an opportunity to study the works of Carl Jung. June Singer was a gifted analyst and a distinguished author and lecturer. Her text, Boundaries of the Soul , is considered to be one of the best introductions to Jungian thought. She also wrote two books about sexuality, and a Jungian study of the poet William Blake.

Tanya Luhrmann discusses some of the ways through which invisible forces come to feel alive to us, and change how we think and live. Tanya Marie Luhrmann is the Albert Ray Lang Professor of Anthropology at Stanford University, with a courtesy appointment in Psychology. Her work focuses on the edge of experience: on voices, visions, the world of the supernatural and the world of psychosis. She has done ethnography on the streets of Chicago with homeless and psychotic women, and worked with people who hear voices in Chennai, Accra and the South Bay. She has also done fieldwork with evangelical Christians who seek to hear God speak back, with Zoroastrians who set out to create a more mystical faith, and with people who practice magic. She uses a combination of ethnographic and experimental methods to understand the phenomenology of unusual sensory experiences, the way they are shaped by ideas about minds and persons, and what we can learn from this social shaping that can help us to help those whose voices are distressing. At the heart of the work is the sense of being called, and its possibilities and burden. She was named to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2003, received a John Guggenheim Fellowship award in 2007 and elected to the American Philosophical Society in 2022. When God Talks Back was named a NYT Notable Book of the Year and a Kirkus Reviews Best Book of the Year. It was awarded the $100,000 Grawemeyer Prize for Religion by the University of Louisville. She has published over thirty OpEds in The New York Times , and her work has been featured in The New Yorker , The New York Review of Books , The Times Literary Supplement , Science News , and many other publications. She is the author of Persuasions of the Witch’s Craft , The Good Parsi , Of Two Minds , When God Talks Back , Our Most Troubling Madness , and How God Becomes Real , and is currently at work on a book entitled Voices .

Season 4 of Jung in the World podcast launches this month. Every season is a renewal of our purpose, which is to apply the ideas of Carl Jung to contemporary living. Host Patricia Martin interviews authors, Jungian analysts, philosophers, scientists, and public figures whose work intersects with Jungian theory. This eclectic mix of thinkers opens up the deepest questions of how we become, and go on becoming, ourselves. Highlights from Season 4 include: How God Becomes Real , with acclaimed anthropologist and Stanford professor Tanya Luhrmann, who shares insights about how we kindle the presence of gods and spirits and how this effort explains the endurance of faith across time and cultures. Jungian analyst and author Robert Tyminski discusses The Archetype of Masculinity: A Crisis in Men and Boys . Tyminski brilliantly weaves poignant case studies with Jungian theory and mythology in an interview that meets the urgency of our times when ideas about masculinity are roiling in the Collective. We re-visit the legend of the Holy Grail with author Paul Bishop, a professor at University of Glasgow, who peels back layers of the Parsifal myth to reveal its meaning in a contemporary context. Jung and the Post-Human Age , with Pacifica professor and author Glen Slater is a deep dive into what digital culture is doing to the human psyche as we internalize the fractiousness of the outer world. What it Means to Grow Up , with the esteemed Jungian and author of 20 books, James Hollis, who brings useful, relatable stories, and incisive wisdom that cuts through the haze of our uncertain times.

Renowned mythologist and McArthur genius Fellow Lewis Hyde joins Patricia Martin in a revelatory conversation about the trickster archetype embodied in mythology. “Lewis Hyde is a poet, essayist, translator, and cultural critic with a particular interest in the public life of the imagination. His 1983 book, The Gift , illuminates and defends the non-commercial portion of artistic practice. Trickster Makes This World (1998) uses a group of ancient myths to argue for the disruptive intelligence that all cultures need if they are to remain lively and open to change. Common as Air (2010) is a spirited defense of our “cultural commons,” that vast store of ideas, inventions, and works of art that we have inherited from the past and continue to enrich in the present. Hyde’s most recent book, A Primer for Forgetting , explores the many situations in which forgetfulness is more useful than memory—in myth, personal psychology, politics, art & spiritual life. A MacArthur Fellow and former director of undergraduate creative writing at Harvard University, Hyde taught writing and American literature for many years at Kenyon College. Now retired, he lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts with his wife, the writer Patricia Vigderman. Hyde is a trustee of MacDowell and a founding director of the Creative Capital Foundation.” Learn more at lewishyde.com . Patricia Martin, MFA , is the host of Jung in the World .

Register for George Bright’s In-Person Seminar “Where Did Jung’s Red Book Come From and Why Does it Matter?” Jung regarded his Red Book: Liber Novus as the record of “the numinous beginning, which contained everything.” In his lifetime, Jung only showed this book to a handful of trusted colleagues whom he thought truly grasped the nature of the book’s vivid confrontations with the unconscious. Its publication in 2009, and translation into many languages, now gives us all the opportunity to engage with it. In conversation with Patricia Martin, the internationally respected Jungian scholar George Bright discusses how and why Jung wrote and painted his Red Book, and draws out key themes that help us understand Jung’s encounter with his soul as chronicled in the Red Book. Bright suggests why reading the enigmatic work may be worth the effort in service of our own transformation. George Bright was educated at Cambridge University and The London School of Economics. He is a Training & Supervising Analyst of the Society of Analytical Psychology and a co-founder of The Circle of Analytical Psychology, a London-based group which provides two-year courses to study Jung’s Liber Novus and Black Books . He has worked in private practice in London for the past 35 years. His 1997 paper Synchronicity as a basis of analytic attitude won the Michael Fordham Prize.
