In this episode, I sit down with clinical psychologist and author Isabel Clarke to explore the deep waters where psychosis, mysticism, and spirituality meet. Drawing from her influential book Madness, Mystery and the Survival of God, Isabel invites us to reconsider what it means to be “mad” in a world that has lost touch with the numinous.
