David Schmachtenberger
Prolific speaker and writer
captivating
Schmachtenberger doesn’t have his own YouTube channel, however, he is a prolific interviewee, so has many videos on the platform. You can find a collection of his current podcasts and dialogues on www.civilisationemerging.com in the media section.
He is the founding member of The Consilience Project, aimed at “improving public sensemaking and dialogue. The through line of his interests has to do with ways of improving the health and development of individuals and society, with a virtuous relationship between the two as a goal.”
I watched the interview he gave with Lex Fridman. Admittedly, I had to watch it on repeat. I struggled to tune into their pace at first, that said, I have never heard anyone like him before. A true visionary. Very much in lay terms, he explores where we have gone wrong as a global society and how we can fix it.
Eye-opening, captivating, frightening yet hopeful. Rightly or wrongly I was left very much in awe of him.
