The Mind Mate Podcast150: How Carl Jung Mapped The Unconscious with Joseph from Humble U MediaJoseph has worked with a wide range of individuals. This includes coaching children with ADHD, teens transitioning to college, adults seeking improved mental focus/performance, and elderly searching for life’s purpose.  This experience, his personal “revelations” and research led him to the work of Swiss Psychologist Carl Jung. A rather synchronistic journey in itself (a story to be told some day). Through Jung’s work, Joseph was able to connect his findings and personal philosophy to Carl Jung’s ideas of individuation, synchronicity, the conscious EGO, the personal/collective unconscious and the Self.

The Mind Mate Podcast#112 - Who Are You Really? Unpacking The Ego | Tom AhernThe ego can be thought of as many things. Some refer to it as “arrogance made manifest” but it is deeper than that.

When we identify ourselves by our egos—and, unfortunately, this is not always a conscious decision—we derive our sense of self from something that isn’t us. The ego ultimately seeks some kind of superiority; it compares itself to others, a...
