54 - David Whyte: Finding the new courageous conversation in times of uncertainty


Listen Later

As the Coronavirus breaks the everyday routines of our lives and forces us to stop, how can we respond? In this conversation with poet and philosopher David Whyte, we explore the conversational nature of reality, the poetic imagination, and our relationship with silence and the invitation embedded within it. At times in our lives the conversation we have been in comes to an end and how we must embrace the unknown in order to find the new courageous conversation that wants to emerge. These are soul-making times that are inviting us to to listen deeply as we ask the question"who do we choose to be?". David Whyte is a poet and philosopher and an associate fellow at Saïd Business School at the University of Oxford. He is the author of The Heart Aroused: Poetry and the Preservation of the Soul in Corporate America and Consolations: The Solace, Nourishment and Underlying Meaning of Everyday Words, and The Bell and the Blackbird. His latest collection is David Whyte: Essentials.
