At a time when many people try to build a following on social media, we'll talk about what it's like to be an Instagram influencer. The good point sand the struggles that people may not always see.

In Today's society, we feel like we have to show we are successful and share our awesome lives on social media. It sometimes comes to the expense of our mental health and people tend to be more depressive or anxious than ever. 5 years ago, Grant Trebilco launched a movement called OneWave that is now is several cities in Australia. The concept is to gather in the morning once a week and exchange about our struggles in a beautiful, loving and non-judgemental environment, and then go for a surf. I've recently opened up more about my emotions and struggles and it can feel like a liberation. It's a super interesting subject. Here are a few questions I'll ask but come with yours: 1. How and why did you start the OneWave movement? 2. Why do you think we suffer that much from anxiety and depression in Today's society? 3. What can we do about it?

#3 - The Meditation Teacher - Matt Ringrose - Introduction to Meditation, use and benefits by Alex Lambert

I interviewed Gaspard Koenig, famous French libertarian philosopher, author of many books and founder of the think tank Generation Libre. Gaspard and his think tank now have a big influence on French politics. In this podcast, we discuss some of the self-organised societies he has been visiting and studying, from open prisons to micro credit, from blockchain to universal basic income. We also discuss the rise of decentralised networks. I have been following Gaspard for more than 4 years and love his work. He is quite famous in France, often invited on radio and TV shows, and thought it would be great to interview him in English in order to have his ideas heard by a wider population.
