The New Monks Podcast is a series designed to dive into the lives of individual people and gain insights from their journey. In each episode we spotlight a "sensei" - we believe that everyone is a teacher, that we can learn from each other's experiences and that it all starts with the telling of our stories.
May we continue to gain many insights from each other with a whole load of understanding, compassion and love for our fellow human beings.
