Note: This is an OG episode of BFTB. For some of my older episodes, I’ve decided to archive them and make them available only for Premium Submarines. Enjoy this throwback episode.Original episode description: If you identify with the symptoms of borderline personality disorder (also known as BPD or EUPD), it’s likely you’ve heard of “splitting.” Splitting is a defense mechanism that causes a person to view something or someone in ‘black and white’ terms (i.e., “all good” or “all bad.) This episode is part one in a three-part deep dive series on BPD splitting behaviors. If you identify with BPD, it’s likely you’re not conscious of when you’re splitting or why it happens. This can be a very painful and isolating experience. By listening to this series, you'll finally become aware of these self-sabotaging patterns and become better connected to yourself and those around you...

tarot and dreams: wisdom of athena and dionysus from the subconscious [preview]
Welcome to your free preview of the first in a brand-new Patreon-exclusive series, where we delve into the art of tending to dream symbols and the exploration of the psyche through the wisdom of the tarot. As I’ve previously mentioned, I’m currently in the process of gaining certifications in both Dream Tending and Jungian Tarot Reading, courtesy of my studies under previous BFTB guest Dr. Stephen Aizenstat and Dr. Ken James.
In this episode, we dive into two different dreams from Premium Submarine, Emilia. In the first dream, she encounters a mysterious owl in her childhood garden, leading to a surreal flight and an exploration of personal transformation. The second dream takes us to a desert where Emilia finds crystals that unexpectedly connect to the Greek god Dionysus, opening insights into her journey of self-discovery and change. In this episode, I use Jungian depth psychology and dream symbolism to unpack these dreams. We’ll look at what they might signify about Emilia’s life changes, her rediscovery of creativity, and emerging from a period of personal challenges.
This is not just an interpretation of Emilia's experiences but a chance for all of us to reflect on the symbols and themes that appear in our own dreams. Join me in this unique dive into the subconscious, exclusive to our Premium Submarine community.
