New Year is a global time of celebration and self-reflection. We let go of what\u2019s worn out and cheer on what\u2019s new and emergent. Here at TJL, we raised our glasses in gratitude. We crested 8 million downloads, implemented major enhancements to your Dream School experience, started crafting our first book, The Key Dreams, and expanded our creative team. It\u2019s been a year of dynamic growth, and we couldn\u2019t have done it without you! Our mission to share Jung\u2019s life-enhancing wisdom is advancing through your patronage, soulful participation, and kind-hearted enthusiasm.

Your experiences are important to us, and we noticed the 2022 episodes you liked best. So to honor that, we\u2019re sharing some gems from those conversations.

• In Reality as Medicine, we explore the task of adapting to the truths of our inner and outer worlds. Finally, in Vocation: Answering the Call, we deepen Jung\u2019s comment, \u201cIn the final analysis, we count for something only because of the essential we embody, and if we do not embody that, life is wasted.\u201d
• In Amor Fati: Love of One\u2019s Fate, we discuss the transformational shift that occurs when we embrace our fate and say the great \u201cYES!\u201d to our lives.\xa0
• In Forgiveness or Fury: Finding a Way Forward, we offer a psychological definition of forgiveness and suggest that we can accept apology and remorse\u2014if it\u2019s accompanied by introspection and greater self-understanding. We clarify that forgiveness is less about the other than self-liberation from the victim paradigm.
• When Jungian analyst Donald Kalsched joined us, we discussed Trauma and the Informed Heart. Don\u2019s wisdom, depth of understanding, and kindness move all of us.
• Connie Zweig led us through a profound exploration of The Inner Work of Age: Shifting from Role to Soul. She lifted up the archetypal transition from Hero to Elder or role to soul. We learned this begins by releasing the ego\u2019s over-identification with doing and reorienting toward the transpersonal center Jung called the Self.
