How often have we tried to seek peace through practicing a YOLO mindset, living in FOMO or FOLO to finding validity in social media? These are common behaviors that we see in our society today. Behaviors that ultimately bring us to a never-ending cycle of frustration, anxiety, and depression. In this episode, Dr. Tarryn MacCarthy is joined by Author Gavin Seah. They talk about his journey, from unknowingly searching for happiness in the wrong places, battling the effects of bullying, racism, and ostracism, to writing about and sharing his personal stories and observations about life through his book: True Humility. Tune in and listen to the key takeaways of reclaiming peace and regaining the balance you need in life.

Gavin Seah was born in Singapore and raised in Melbourne, Australia. Prior to his recent endeavor in writing, he worked in corporate banks and the Big Four accounting firms in Singapore. Growing up, Gavin went through many trials and tribulations. As he scoured the world searching for purpose and happiness, he came to realize the beauty of Humility. With a keen passion for imparting the practice of Humility to others, Gavin hopes to challenge and change the lives of many.

When Gavin isn't writing, he can be found in the heart of the city, walking around and indulging in new conversations, art, and music, always with a smile on his face.
