Hi, I am Ante Jeroncic, and on this channel, I explore the overlapping spaces where philosophy, wisdom traditions, spirituality, and self-development literature meet on the question of the flourishing life. More than a theoretical exercise, I see this endeavor as a personal quest, haltingly as it might be, to “live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life” (Thoreau).
