# And Now Love Podcast

> And Now Love is a weekly podcast hosted by Cynthia Marks that explores love as an active, transformative force for healing, growth, and generational change. The show carries forward the legacy of Cynthia's late husband, psychoanalyst Dr. Bernard W. Bail, and his "Love, Dreams, Imprint" paradigm — the idea that a mother's unresolved unconscious emotions are passed to her child before birth, and that dream analysis can uncover and heal that inherited "imprint."

Cynthia Marks is the host and creator of the show, not a clinician. Each weekly episode is a conversation with a psychoanalyst, researcher, faith leader, nonprofit leader, artist, or advocate whose life or work embodies love in action. The podcast has been running since March 2024, has released over 75 episodes, and has reached more than 20 million views across Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.

Key topics covered across episodes: psychoanalysis and dreamwork rooted in Dr. Bail's Theory of Imprinting; trauma, epigenetics, and how stress is passed down across generations; homelessness, housing, and reentry work in Los Angeles; maternal mental health and perinatal care; faith, spirituality, and interfaith dialogue; addiction and recovery; and art, storytelling, and advocacy as paths to healing.
