THINKING WITH DAVID PATREON
Dear Friend,
By visiting my Patreon page and joining the Order of Thinkers, you gain access to patron-only content including early releases for episodes, exclusive audio, video and other writings I’m too embarrassed to release on the main feed.
By subscribing, these become available to you, but no worries and no pressure if you don’t want to access these things, I’m thankful to share this journey with you and continue experimenting and exploring.
Thanks so much and looking forward to sharing with you.
Love,
David

George Mumford dropped by the 10% Happier Podcast with Dan Harris where he proceeded to plant wisdom seeds into the ears and minds of listeners, each for our own benefit. His interview was filled to the brim with insights on life, mindfulness, meditation and flow. For […]
Eckart Tolle’s A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose was one of the first deeply insightful books I read on the plight of the individual and why suffering arises. It set me on a deep rabbit-hole of Mr. Tolle’s YouTube […]
