On today’s show, I talk with John Kaag, an American philosopher and writer, and the author of the book “Sick Souls, Healthy Minds: How William James can save your life.” John talks about COVID-19 and how it is both forcing us to ask challenging questions like “What am I going to do with my life?” and “What is my purpose?” while also affording us the time and space to reflect on these questions.
