Welcome to the Tattoos with Intention Podcast, presented by the Tattoo Pathway Research and Education Institute! In this episode, Taylor, our lead researcher, engages in a compelling conversation with Dr. Daniel Franz—licensed mental health counsellor, addictions specialist, and expert in Viktor Frankl’s Logotherapy.
Together, they explore how Logotherapy's core concepts—self-responsibility, resilience, and self-transcendence—can guide us in living a meaningful life. Dr. Franz shares practical tools for cultivating meaning in everyday life, emphasising the power of intentional choices, community connection, and using life’s challenges as opportunities for growth. They also discuss how living a meaningful life directly influences the experience of meaningful tattoos.
If you’re searching for ways to integrate deeper purpose into your life and tattoo journey, this episode is packed with valuable insights!
