Shownotes Transcript

Sure, it’s a nice door. But are you going to stare at it, or go ahead and open it? In this episode, you’ll hear Sue Scavo describe each character in your dream as a door to walk through. Have you ever been confused or embarrassed about dreaming of a certain person? Thinking, “why is he here?” Sue gives such a helpful way of looking at this. I really enjoyed hearing Sue share her thoughts on art and dreams, and how core dreams are to human creativity. As she puts it, the dream is just the beginning. The dream itself is a door, and when we walk through it, the conversation begins. You’ll hear several dream stories from Sue. We talk about famous people and characters in our personal dreams (anyone else have dreams of Harry Potter or U2?). One of my favorite parts of the interview is the end, when Sue gives her guidance for working with your own dreams. Her re-frame about the whole “we have blind spots about ourselves” concept is a real gift. I’ll let you listen to it for yourself. Find Sue at her website), at deLuge), or at Students of the Dream). Music: East Forest)
