Slice of Wisdom
“What is a philosopher?”‘ A person who seeks to understand fundamental questions about:Existence, knowledge, values, reason and reality through critical thinking and emotional enquiry. ‘I have always asked questions when I didn’t understand the first answer to my question or if I wasn’t fully satisfied with my perception of the answer I was given. I search for more, to understand. This can be a blessing and a curse as somethings in this world aren’t meant to be understood, they are meant to be lived.So join me in my practice of Philosophy. As Philosophers seek wisdom; they don’t aut...
#13 - "Treat Everything Like It's Your Last"
#12 - Change starts with YOU
YOU have an effect on this world.
No matter how big or small the action. You create ripples in the ocean of this world.
YOU... have a duty to look after your immediate circle. Whoever you speak to, look at or touch. To spread joy and positivity to those around you. To take the first step towards danger as a leader.
WE... are the gate keepers to the health and safety of our streets.
NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, GIVE UP - Winston Churchill
Our ancestors didn't, so why should we?<...

#10 - "It just is"
Sometimes all the justification you need is with how you feel. In your job, relationship, the beer you're drinking or the food you're eating. Just because something is award winning or perfect on paper doesn't mean its right for you.
#9 - This is it!
During a run I saw what I believe to be the destination of the journey. Something accessible, achievable. It isn't always the big wins that make life count.
#8 - Perspectives
If I could give anyone a superpower, it would be this. The ability to see other perspectives. It was infact my new years resolution for 2025 and has become the most valuable skill I have learnt in my life. How do you think this will help you in your life?
#7 - "Enjoy the highs, Address the lows, Expect the average"

#6 - HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT
Listen in, only good things to come.
#5 - Solo Special - Purpose
In todays solo special, I talk about how I have found my purpose and ways I think could help you discover your purpose or bring you back onto the path towards your destination.
Purpose is why we get out of bed everyday, why else would you get up everyday unless it makes you happy? Discipline gets you so far, but it should always amount to making you happy.

Welcome to the Slice of Wisdom
Hosting a podcast has been my dream job for the last 10 years, so I've decided to stop wondering what it would be like to have one and start feeling what its like to have one.
Strap In for future episodes as we will be diving into the everyday struggles of modern men and how they combat their demons. Raw stories from real men in all walks of life, listening to their experiences and seeing how they keep their head in the game.
