- On this episode of the Point of Relation podcast, Thomas is joined by poet, author, speaker, and leadership consultant, David Whyte. They discuss the deep benefits of learning to hold both happiness and difficulty at the same time. David shares some of his poetry and the personal experiences that helped him to directly observe the interconnectedness of all living beings.
He and Thomas explore our individual and collective reluctance to be vulnerable, present, and open to change, and how embracing those aspects of life can open us to true maturation and healing. As David explains, there is beauty to be found even in pain and grief, and making space for these challenging emotions also opens us to the most joyous ones.

What a beautiful conversation, what a flow! I laugh, I cry, I get quiet, I listen, I settle... and I'm moved 🙇♀️
I had the good fortune to see David Whyte in California many years ago live and being in the room with him I could feel his high spiritual energy and his transmitting that to all that were there. I felt happy and so grateful to be sharing the space.
I could listen to this flow of liquid words as they meander from one pool to another-filling one then going on to the other.
Two of my favorite spiritual men, anchored in humanity.
and many of us are frozen from speaking out about the atrocities happening in war zones right now. Also the child who is frozen that can not speak about their pain due to family dynamics. Feeling so much Love from listening to this wonderful interview.
"there's an incredible joy in saying no to so many things" Oh how this (and everything else in this conversation) speaks to me. Thank you for all of this.
We're so glad you enjoyed this episode, Katie! - Team Thomas Hübl
The cup runneth over! I know I will listen to this again and again. Give yourself this ‘gift’.
Re: the right to be reluctant - Years ago I had to learn this phrase from my therapist: “that doesn’t work for me.” It was an incredible tool when I repeated it in difficult relationships. It was as if I didn’t know I had the right to declare this.
Thank you, Thomas, for reminding us that when a person in overwhelmed (lost in an avalanche) the healthy response of community is to go find them.
Problem is so many of us were lost and no one looked, so we then didn't know to look or how, if we had the impulse; the instinct.
My own father knew there was something very wrong when I was quite mute as a child but couldn't seem to reconcile how I got there, and his part in it.
It becomes such a mess.
Thank you for being patient and willing enough to unravel the knots of yarn.

“Our only path is to get our heart broken by something we really care about.” This and so much of the conversation moved me. The point about losing young people to video games- we have so many soporifics nowadays. And yet the totality of that immersive world! I can stop scrolling to notice the patch of blue in the sky, and yes, I recognize that I chose to pick up my phone, though I didn’t control for how long. And that’s not ideal, and we are seeing some pushback against this neurohijacking with school boards filing lawsuits. Anyway, I needed to hear your talk today. I am so grateful to both of you and your incredible mothers.
Profound exploration of much unspoken. I’m going back, digesting each conversation one nibble at a time. So much gratitude ♥️
Dearest Thomas - I heard you say that your mother passed away just a week prior to this. I so hope that you are taking space and time to honor the grief of that huge passage. So much love to your, Dear Thomas, as you transit this huge passage.
Such a beautiful example of holding and honoring of your mothers passing in community, in relationship. ❤
Beatifi men. Beautiful moments💯‼️♥️
Thank you 🙏🏻 so much
It was truly delightful to encounter existential insights expressed so beautifully through the poetic lens.
I am changed forever. Thank you. ❤
An amazing talk of such profound depth like an ocean and reaching to the furthest outskirts of the soul. Thank you both for this wonderful gift of connectedness
A beautiful interview with two very decent caring men. Thankyou
Beautiful time spent listening to these beautiful men. Thank you both. Lots of moments to think about and feel through. Love, love, love you thoughts and poetry 💯‼️♥️
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for listening. - Team Thomas Hübl
"Just come home"....I love that!
Wow ,that's so beautiful the farewell letter. Thank you, it sure reassures us all about our gone mothers and fathers. Reminding us of how to carry on the torch of love and care . Thank you both .
Is the Collective Witness perhaps the presence of the vibrational dimension that is the Christ Consciousness? This is an exquisite conversation 🙏🏻❤️
Thank you. ❤️🙏
Powerful insights.
We are so glad you enjoyed the conversation. - Team Thomas Hübl
