The Official And Now Love Podcast: www.andnowlove.com In this intimate episode, Cynthia Marks turns the mic on herself to trace the real story behind And Now Love. With Dr. Loren Weiner, she recounts meeting Dr. Bernard Bail and the dream that foretold their partnership—then shows how dream analysis helped her expose the mother’s imprint and claim her voice. We follow Bail’s WWII POW experience into his later work as a psychoanalyst who argued that the “war inside” must be healed to stop the wars outside. Cynthia shares raw examples of dreams that labeled denial, unlocked patterns, and clarified what love is (and isn’t). We also examine Bail’s fights for intellectual openness in psychoanalysis and his insistence that women have an equal seat at the table. It’s a candid look at the man, the method, and the marriage that sparked this podcast—and an invitation to look within and begin your own healing through dreams.
