In this Tao Dialogues episode, David explores the gentle, often misunderstood power of being humble.

Have you ever thought that being humble makes you weak? Do you find yourself confused between setting healthy boundaries and being submissive? Or perhaps you wonder if humility and ambition can ever walk the same path?

Humility is often mistaken for invisibility in a world that values noise, boldness and assertion. You’ll learn how humility isn’t about hiding but revealing our quiet strength. True humility in Taoism is not about shrinking ourselves or surrendering our values. It is about recognising our place in the vast rhythm of the Cosmos.
