17. Does life have rules?

Should you learn someone else’s rules for life before making your own?

The new season of the podcast is dedicated to exploring Jordan Peterson’s Twelve Rules for Life.

A few years ago, while studying mythology, I stumbled upon a series of YouTube lectures by an author I didn’t know at the time. The topic? The psychological interpretation of biblical stories.

What struck me most was how these seemingly dry, hours-long videos were being watched by millions of people around the world.

In this episode, we talk about why Twelve Rules for Life is worth reading, even if titles like “how to live properly” make you roll your eyes.

And what does Jung, cognitive psychology, and ancient myth have to do with all this? Let’s find out.

If you’ve read Peterson before and want to go deeper into his ideas, join the conversation.

If you’re new to him but curious about meaning, order, and the inner structure of life, you’ll definitely find something here.

And if you believe life can’t be squeezed into a set of rules, tune in and join the discussion!
