Dr. James Hollis: How to Find Your True Purpose & Create Your Best Life
Ғылым және технология
In this episode, my guest is Dr. James Hollis, Ph.D., a Jungian psychoanalyst, renowned educator and author on finding and pursuing one’s unique purpose. Dr. Hollis is also an expert in the psychology of relationships and healing from trauma. We discuss how early family dynamics and social context create patterns of both adaptive and maladaptive behavior and internal narratives that, when examined, lead to better choices and a deeply fulfilling existence.
We discuss discovering your unique self-identity and purpose through specific practices of reflection, meditation and conversations with others. We also discuss self-perception and the evolution of roles within marriages, parent-child relationships, and work.
Throughout the episode, Dr. Hollis provides both basic knowledge and practical tools to help us assess ourselves and better understand who we are and what we really want in careers, relationships of all kinds, and society.
Thank you to our sponsors

Hi Andrew - this was a great synthesis of the human spirit and mind. I really appreciate your work and the interview; Dr. James summarizes in an objective way the journey of the human soul, it is a great explanation of the soul through the current 2024 lenses of science and society. The practice of the Orthodox Christian religion, the oldest Christian religion, fills in the gaps and missing questions. Both of you are illuminated, but there is a higher step, when you seek the divinity and divinity illuminates you and you get the certainty of life after death and a lot more. Thank you for your great work and I hope God will iluminate you with his wisdom.

Agree, I pray to god my clarity of thinking is anywhere near this at his age, i'm already frazzeled at age 50. Time to eat my fish oil I guess....
1. What are the stories we are living? 2. We live reacting to everything that happens to us. Do we have other options? 3. I'm accountable for what I have lived so far. 4. Everything is conditionable. Everything has a condition. 5. Serving the self is not selfish. 6. What does one really want? 7. Reflecting on my dreams with coffee every morning. 8. Psychology in Greek: 'Pay attention to the soul.' 9. Escape from any stimulus. Everything is a stimulus. 10. Find the place. Tolerate being with yourself, and if you really pay attention, something will start coming up. 11. Healthy response to whatever life brings up. 12. Look for people that can see what we cannot see. 13. Taking responsibility for my shadow and stop blaming others. 14. You become larger than what happened to you. 15. When you are done with your fears, the fears of others won't be so threatening. 16. Is this your life or someone else's? Some people just keep living reactively. 17. Tell me not your politics or your religion, tell me your suffering. 18. Pay attention, honor what emerges, and have courage to deal with it. We can live in a different way.

You are changing lives Dr. Huberman. Forever grateful. Take care.
To breeze through an almost 3 hr podcast, and crave more, says something. My biggest takeaway was the idea that something did indeed shift in me when I passed 35, and I am not alone in that internal search. I’m going to download Dr. James Hollis’s book on audible’ “Finding Meaning in the Second Half of Life.” It is included in the audible membership, if anyone else is interested. Thanks, Dr. Huberman for another fabulous podcast.
This is one of my favorite episodes thus far… I want to listen again and take good notes as well. Listening was such a gentle reorientation and re-centering experience. I feel called both upward and inward. Thank you so much for introducing us to Dr. Hollis - I’m excited to continue learning from him. Please pass on our gratitude!

Everyone needs to hear this man speak. Thank you AH. I needed this today
These kinds of discussions that delve deep into matters of the mind and spirit are way too underrated. The guest doctor talks with such clarity and eloquence about these matters that it really helps the listener contemplate along with. Truly one if the best episodes yet in my opinion. A lot of people are suffering from their vices, weaknesses, misperceptions, unconscious scripts, etc. So many folks feel powerless to their emotions and maladaptations. It's difficult work to undo and unravel it all, especially without access to deeply skilled and caring therapists.
From the moment you began this podcast, I have hoped endlessly that Dr. Hollis would come on. When you divulged that you'd traveled to a guest, I thought, "please be Dr. Hollis". Not sure of why this pairing of you two is so important to me, but here we are! Can you imagine my elation this morning about this episode?! Thank you for this and thank you to infinity to Dr. Hollis. May this be only the first of his appearances with you. Even more, may this episode give his work a wider, larger audience. Our world needs it!

"We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life but instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life, daily and hourly... Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it consistently sets for each individual. " ~Viktor E. Frankl
I got hit by psychosis and depression at the beginning of my twenties. It took me some time to heal and align to the purpose of my soul. I had to let go of ego's expectations and find my natural flow. Still work to do but existential suffering is now taken care of and I don't question anymore all the meaning when something challenging happens. Summarizing my experience i would say that i had to let go of my mind and use a deeper wisdom based on trust and listening. I suggest that everybody cultivates this side of them in order to be more flexible and ready in the face of lifes hard and unexpected challenges, this offers a healthy coping mechanism and adaptation strategy, that you can apply to anything in life... so it is worth trying. I hope i will start sharing more in the future as i mature this vision .. bye from italy

This episode is a wealth of wisdom and has a really deep understanding of the human being. Thank you Dr. Huberman and Dr. Hollis. I have a lot of introspection to do after this and the books of Dr. Hollis to purchase and read.

What a persona! In another recent podcast you quoted Dr. Hollis: "Look inside yourself for something positive every day when you wake up.". It is something I now do every morning. After that, I jog and do cold therapy. Sometimes finding something positive inside of you is extremely difficult if you have suffered from complex trauma, but I do this practice every morning. Thanks a lot.
I only listened to this podcast. I expected this guy to be in his 40's-50's. I am absolute taken back that he is 84!!! What an absolute inspiration this man is.
This talk is fantastic! Dr Hollis speaks so eloquently, with such poise and calmness. It's an easy listen despite the complexity of the topics.

That part at the end...I think he had a lump in his throat. Did me in.

Thanks for this Andrew and team. I've been following Hollis for about 8 years now and his books have been such an immense help, helping me get through a difficult mid life transition in my mid 30s. I'm a therapist myself and draw greatly on his work in so many areas of my practice. I've long hoped he would become more popular, the world really needs his work.
This was one of the most valuable and impactful podcasts I have heard. Huberman steps back and allows Hollis to share his deep knowledge and profound insights about the psyche, purpose, and the self. There is a wealth of wisdom here that will inform and enrich my life and work as a midlife transition coach. Thank you so very much!

And I have had to replay it three times, not because it is hard to understand, but because what has been said is so meaningful! I can’t wait to read Dr. Holiss’ books! Thank you!
huberman’s timing is immaculate, never seems to disappoint.
If you dr Dr huberman are reading this i want to say your podcast on sleep has helped me get clarity on different tools for sleep thank you

100% his information has improved my sleep
You know Dr Huberman really admires Dr Hollis because you can see his nervousness when he's asking the questions 😄 In all seriousness I'm only half way through the episode and all I want to say is thank you for having this eminence on your channel!! PS: Please bring Dr Gabor Mate to the podcast!!
I am grateful to be able to listen to these amazing podcasts, and yet feel guilty that I live a life of comfort and ease that allows me to contemplate these great topics while other people are struggling to stay alive

Please don’t take it for granted. I was in the same boat until last year when I became one of the >200k tech workers that got laid off. 15 year career over with zero notice. Anything can happen. Wring the most out of your life like it ends tomorrow!
This is the essence: this is the best podcast ever done by Huberman. Amazing, marvellous-listen with an open mouth. I have been watching it five or six times since uploading, and still, a new insight arises. Speechless, literally speechless.
As part of the general public, I appreciate your desire & effort to bring zero-cost-to-consumer education about science & science-related tools to us! Many thanks to you & your team for your dedicated work! 🙏

you memorised the adds, and turned it into a poem? perhaps you should consider a career in marketing. seems something your passionate about.
I feel wonderstruck, deeply moved and grateful by this glimpse at the wisdom of Dr. Hollis. THANK YOU
You can tell he made a mark on huberman (and me) during this one. I can see the struggle, pain, and trauma in his eyes. Hope this therapy session brought you some tranquility. To everyone else struggling, keep your head up and keep on fighting. Thx for the therapy session.
Omg, I sent you my request to host James Hollis about 1.5 yr ago after having read all his books and attending his live presentation in chicago. I’m so immensely excited and greatfull he made his appearance on your podcast. His contribution to humanity is priceless. Thank you!
Thank you Andrew Huberman for opening up such a valuable conversation. "I'm accountable for what's spilling into the world through me". I'm also working on lightening the burden on my future children by living with as much courage as I can mobilize and as much integrity as I can manage ❤
I must admit, I initially underestimated him based solely on his age; I expected to encounter someone with diminished faculties. However, I was completely taken aback by the profound depth and clarity of his thoughts. His words were so rich and insightful that I frequently found myself pausing to fully absorb everything he said. It was a truly powerful presentation, and I anticipate it will take me quite some time to fully digest the profound ideas he shared. What an extraordinary individual! His eloquence and wisdom leave me wondering: what steps can I take to ensure I remain as coherent, wise, and sharp as he is at his age? Truly brilliant!

Not judging people and being curious and self realised is a start! I have often found those of are open minded and continue to learn much more coherent in their later years than those who have shut off others in their arrogance

It’s in countries like America that age is underestimated.
What a brilliant guest you brought us today Dr Huberman. Really enjoy the conversations between the two of you. Dr Hollis is a fatherlike figure for those who are in search of meaning in life. Really admire his insights on our souls' struggle to understand the meaning of life.
Each episode is a masterpiece. Prof Huberman set out to do a service to mankind. He is so on spot. I now know first-hand what transformative means. As they say truth shall set you free, not your effort to be free. Thank you Prof. Huberman for bringing us truths based in science, and in a such a relatable way. And, thank you for bringing Dr. Hollis' experience and wisdom to us.
This was The Most Outstanding podcast. It was balm listening to it. I love James Hollis's work....I have read him, HIllman, Thomas Moore, Robert Johnson. Hollis bring out such a deep profound humaness in one....I could hear it in you, Andrew Huberman. It was beautiful. Thank you so much for bringing this podcast to us. I have already listened twice and will do again.
People with complex PTSD, especially severe chronic childhood trauma, can have a lot of those clusters because of repeated severe dissociation. MD Dr. Richard Schwarz speaks about this in IFS, Internal Family System, and teach how to integrate those clusters. So important to do this inner work for everyone. The less we are in autopilot, the more we are able to do the right things in life, for a better personal life, better communities, healthier families and a healthier planet.

Do you have a video of it?
Wow! Dr. Hollis is an amazing man. Thank you for having him on the podcast.
I feel so lucky to have discovered Dr Hollis 11 years ago! Thank you for bringing him on the podcast ✨
Anything Jungian fascinates me deeply and is one of the reasons I decided to study psychology. Thank you so much for bringing back to the masses with such an expert in the field🙏❤️
This is so far your most important and valuable episode. Dr James Hollis is the genuine article, not some pop culture self help guru bullshit. More of this and less BS please
One of the best pods I've listened to in a long while, and not just from Huberman, but the podcast world as a whole.
Thank you so much for such a profound and important talk. If everyone would ask the big questions at least once in their life, the world would be a much better place. We need people like you, who do not fear the deepest. Talk more, try more, for all wounded and beautiful us
Andrew, your podcast is a gift and I am glad it is getting the subscribers that itndeserves. Dr. Hollis changed my life with this podcast. From now on it is my bible. If you follow the advice in this podcast, you will live a fulfilling life.
Thank you so much for speaking with Dr. Hollis. His contribution to the world is profound & it’s exciting to see him brought to a platform like yours. I missed seeing him live before he stopped lecturing. To listen to this up to date conversation has been nourishing. Every morsel could be endlessly explored. Potent.
This was absolutely impeccable and deeply inspiring, thanks for this one Andrew. Love you
Dr. Hollis is adorable & insightful. Walks & talks with him I am sure are filled with so many awakenings. Thank you ever so much ❤
Speechless! So insightful Dr. Huberman is a master at interviewing. Patient, not cutting the train of thought of his speaker. Taking pauses and asking deep questions. My favorite podcast by far!
