In this episode Dr. Zarnett is the host and I am the guest. He asks me a variety of questions about how I navigate the ebbs and flows of life, how I deal with adversity, and how I cultivate well-being and resilience in my own life.

David is the Undergraduate Advisor in the Department of Political Science at the University of Toronto, from where he received a Ph.D in 2017.  His work supports students as they address challenges in school and as they prepare for life after graduation. Through his work on campus, including as a lecturer and teaching assistant, he has witnessed a deteriorating mental health situation. He is passionate about providing students with the support and guidance they need to reach their potential.  

He is one of the last human beings on the planet who isn’t attached to a smart phone. He uses it reluctantly for emergencies and other necessary communication. (not for co-workers)
