A fresh look at what it means to be wise - beyond age and experience.

Sam challenges and expands upon traditional views of wisdom, to redefine wisdom to be more useful and true.

By examining how wisdom influences our life decisions and embracing a broader definition of wisdom, we invite listeners to reconsider their perceptions of wisdom.

Personal wisdom begins with acknowledging that wisdom is not exclusively born from age or experience but emerges from making wise choices for personal happiness and understanding wisdom through self-acceptance in your circumstances and embracing who you are.

Sam Webster Harris explores the psychology of happiness, satisfaction, purpose, and growth through the lens of self-improvement.

Success and happiness is a state of mind unique to ourselves and is our responsibility to create.
