How many of us are actually slowing down? After restrictions from Covid lifted, we expected to see some of that “slowing down” patterns to continue, but have people forgotten too quickly? What does a LIFE OF SLOW actually mean? Join us in this riveting conversation with two-time TED speaker and award-winning author Carl Honoré, who is also the voice of the Slow Movement. After working with street children in Brazil, Carl covered Europe and South America for the Economist, Observer, Miami Herald, Houston Chronicle, National Post (Canada), Time and other publications.
His first book, In Praise of Slow, chronicles the global trend toward putting on the brakes in everything from work to food to parenting. It was a BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week and the inaugural choice for the Huffington Post Book Club. It featured in a British TV sitcom, Argentina’s version of Big Brother, and a TV commercial for the Motorola tablet. The Financial Times said it is “to the Slow Movement what Das Kapital is to communism”. Carl’s third book, The Slow Fix, explores how to tackle complex problems in every walk of life, from health and relationships to business and politics, without falling for superficial, short-term quick fixes.
