I really like people to be not so frightened of fear to experience it, to see it as a human emotion that is trying to inform them of something, trying to inform them of something that makes them very uncomfortable and disoriented, because that's how you grow man.
Dreams have always been a mysterious part of our lives, but what if they held the key to understanding ourselves better? In this engaging episode of 'Dharma Junkie', host Justin Otto sits down with Will Sharon, a seasoned dream expert and coach, to unpack the hidden significance of our nightly visions.
Will's journey is anything but ordinary—starting as a young therapist at the Veterans Administration in Manhattan, dabbling in acting on NYC soap operas, and then navigating a 25-year corporate career with several high-level positions. His eclectic experiences have given him a unique perspective on success, failure, and the ways both can disconnect us from our true selves. In his coaching practice, Will takes a refreshing approach to dreams.
Rather than interpreting and discarding them, he believes in keeping dreams alive to let them inform us over time. This episode dives deep into how dreams can be animated and used as tools for personal growth. But it doesn't stop there. The conversation also explores the role of psychedelics in therapy, the often misleading construct of economic growth, and how facing our fears and embracing discomfort can lead to profound personal transformation.
Whether you're curious about the world of dreams or looking for ways to grow by confronting your fears, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice. Tune in to discover how keeping your dreams alive can help you reconnect with your essence and navigate life's complexities with a renewed sense of purpose.
