You Are Here

Dr. Christopher Taylor

We all spend time in the dark. We play the roles expected of us, chase titles that don't fulfill us, and build our identities around shadows on a wall. But what happens when you finally realize the life you are living isn't really yours? Welcome to You Are Here, hosted by Dr. Christopher S. Taylor. Each episode, Dr. Taylor sits down with a real person carrying a real story — someone who has faced the darkness of the cave and made the difficult, courageous climb toward the light. Together, they explore the profound questions we all wrestle with: Who am I? What is my purpose? How do I find meaning when everything I thought defined me no longer fits? Drawing on existential philosophy, decades of clinical experience, and the raw, unfiltered truth of human transformation, You Are Here is more than a podcast. It is a process for purpose. A front-row seat to the most important journey a person can take — the one back to themselves. The door is right behind you, wide open. All you have to do is walk through it.

    Hi, I'm Chris.

    Send us Fan Mail Okay, so here’s the deal. I’ve been putting this off for way too long. My life feels so fractured these days. I never really know where the day will take me. Do you ever feel completely lost? Yeah… me too.  But hey, that’s why we have mall kiosks and little red dots to comfort us and tell us exactly where we are… and how far we must traverse to reach the Gap or the food court.  For me, life has been this crazy twist of events that are beyond all measure of comprehension. Where I started, where I have been, what I am, what I am not, what I get to do, where I am, and to God knows where I am going - this life feels akin to a Jackson Pollock painting. To be direct, I don’t understand it at all. And the older I find myself the more I find I am sure that I know much less than I ever really thought I knew.  Hi… I’m Chris. We might have met somewhere along the way. Or perhaps we’ve known each other for some time now. Or… better yet, we have yet to meet, and you found this podcast randomly or on the TCG website or in some other random way, IDK! Either way, it matters not. I am so very happy you are here.
