This week Barry Taylor joins the podcast to talk about faith, identity, and the complexities of human experience. Together we explore the role of symbolism in faith, the ambiguity and uncertainty that often accompany belief, and the importance of asking the right questions. Barry gets personal as we discuss depression, melancholy, and the search for meaning. Pushing further, we explore the complexities of negative emotions, authenticity, and the challenges of self-expression. We discuss the importance of embracing one's true self amidst societal expectations and the struggle with imposter syndrome. Our conversation also touches on the liberating aspects of curiosity over ambition, the balance between humor and seriousness, and the influence of music on our lives. This is a fun and wide ranging conversation... enjoy!
