In this episode, my guest is Simon Drew from the Walled Garden Philosophical Society. As many of you know, Simon is a friend, poet, musician, philosopher, and someone deeply interested in life’s questions. Today’s episode is Part III of a series (Part I & Part II) called Living the Questions. The title is inspired by a popular quote from the poet Rainer Maria Rilke, who wrote in Letters to a Young Poet, “Live the questions for now. Perhaps then, without even noticing it, you will gradually come, on some far-off day, to live your way into the answer.”

In the conversation, Simon and I explore, What is wisdom?

  • How to think about wisdom
  • View and beliefs
  • Trusting our inner wisdom
  • Embodying a philosophy
  • Being a friend to ourselves
  • Wisdom practices and much more
