Episode #300 - Simon Drew: Peace Amidst the Chaos
Modern Challenges, Prayer, and Contentment
Hello Friends,
Simon Drew is an alignment coach, poet, author, musician, photographer, and the founder of The Walled Garden Philosophical Society. He has a Bachelor of Music Performance and is most well known for his work with the Practical Stoic Podcast, which has since evolved into The Walled Garden. I’ve known Simon for a couple of years at this point. It is his third appearance on the SS. He has appeared in Episodes 134 and 222.
This conversation with Simon was as engaged and meaningful as the previous ones. He has a real talent for conversation, which is one of the things I respect most about him. In this episode, we speak about the current challenges of our time, the utility of prayer and its various forms, how to find peace and contentment amidst the inherent chaos of life, and much more.
I hope this episode provides some wisdom.
Brandon
