The Smiling Human Introduction

Hello and Welcome to The Smiling Human Podcast. My name is Oak and I will be your host. For those I have not yet met allow me to introduce myself.

I am a Philosopher, Author, and lifelong student driven by a love of truth and learning. I facilitate transformative spaces, and offer mentorship to those looking to take the next step in their personal evolution.

I believe that we bring about greater good in this world by venturing towards greater understanding. It is my mission and the mission of this podcast to help uplift others into hope amidst the existential epidemic that many are calling The Crisis of Meaning.

Education is nothing without inspiration and I believe that skillful and curious inquiry is one of the most important skills one can have in our age of information. With the right questions we can walk together towards a collective future whose emphasis is on evolution rather than division.

With that being said, allow me to offer you an idea of what to expect in the months ahead:

I believe the antidote to ignorance is humility and as such you, my dear listener, will be welcomed into conversations where I hope to dissolve my own ignorance and learn alongside you.

Through dialogue with peers and experts on today’s most relevant topics we will approach our collective and personal evolution with curiosity and a passion to grow.

To support the integration of the wisdom that we will no doubt encounter throughout our journey, an episode dedicated to the distillation and application of that wisdom will cap off each month.

What lies ahead is a show guided by the love of truth and a commitment to a purpose greater than one set of ideas, a show of all of you who are ready to evolve for the betterment of our global community.

I hope these episodes find you well, and lastly

I hope to make you smile

Until next time
