Life is full of doubt and certainty, faith and questioning, love, and hate. What better way to grasp joy to help us through it.
Join me (Kelvin) on a journey of exploring what joy looks like in different areas and aspects of life. Together, through blethering and listening to a diverse bunch of legends we'll - hopefully - find out what it truly means to grasp joy.
Woah, how did we get to the last interview?! Madness. Anyways, I hope you enjoy this one as it's a good one. Ben and I discover what it means to have joy in a part of life seeking something that is yet to be.
Take it easy,
Kelvin

Ep. 4 - Deconstruction and Joy
Hey, my dudes!
Today we have a conversation with William Gibson of 'The Space Between' on a heavier topic but still all the more applicable to our lives. I definitely recommend that if you listen that you are able to at least note down specific times you'd like to go back and listen to during the episode and/or use a notepad and thinking cap! I just don't want you to think back and realise you learned something but don't know where it was - trust me, I've been there.
Check William out on Instagram - @williamgibsongla and @thespacebetweenuk
The stuff he mentioned to check out - Kings Collidescope - Zeal, John Gurera - Citizens, William Matthews - Cosmos, Guided meditation (He uses 'The Liturgists), and Apathetic prayer.
Take it easy everyone,
Kelvin
