Why Some Men Never Grow Up (Puer Aeternus Pt. 1)
Description
In the first part of this two-part series, Dr. K explores the Puer Aeternus archetype often described as the “eternal boy.” This mindset can leave people stuck in a state of endless potential with no real-world progress. If you've ever felt like you're meant for something more but can’t seem to start, this episode may resonate.
Dr. K talks about:
-
The trap of idealized potential
-
Why perfectionism and fear of failure keep us in fantasy
-
How chasing the “perfect future” can backfire
-
Listener reactions, including some raw and honest moments
It's an honest, reflective conversation for anyone who feels stuck and wants to understand why.
