Jordan Peterson argues the crisis tearing the Western world apart isn't political or economic — it goes far deeper. When science stripped meaning from the world, it left something worse behind: suffering with no purpose and no story to make sense of it. In this lecture, Jordan explains why your values determine what you see, why stories carry a truth science can't, and what it costs a person — and a culture — when they aim at the wrong things. He also breaks down the psychology behind Snow White and Sleeping Beauty, and why those stories grip us whether we understand them or not. If your ambition keeps stalling, your relationships keep failing, or life feels like it's missing something you can't name — this one's worth your time. This lecture was filmed in Miami, Florida, on March 24, 2025. Unlock the ad-free experience of The Jordan B. Peterson Podcast and dive into exclusive bonus content on DailyWire+.
