Wisdom is maximized and abundant I believe we need to challenge our thoughts, feelings and emotions with a critical mind. I believe we need to do better at unlearning what is no longer useful, relearning what needs to be updated, and learning the new principles that elevate us all. This podcast offers wide range of topics, relevant to everyday life. We aim to deliver verifiable factual information in concise episodes with enough resources so you can DO YOUR OWN THINKING and come up with your OWN opinions.
