In this reflective and wide-ranging episode, Dr. John Patrick looks back on a life shaped by medicine, family, literature, and faith, asking a timeless question: what gives life meaning?
Drawing on personal memories, historical change, and the writings of Walker Percy, Dr. Patrick explores how modern life often reduces human beings to consumers and functionaries leaving many affluent, educated people profoundly dissatisfied. He reflects on work made obsolete by technology, the loss of vocational purpose, and why the most meaningful moments in life are rarely the most comfortable or efficient.
