Episode 27 - An Unconventional Path to Happiness with Shawn Buck

In this episode, we chat with Shawn Buck about what it means to authentically unravel—and how choosing unconventional paths can lead to unexpected joy. Shawn shares his story of leaving university to pursue meaningful work in Cape Town, navigating the tension between freedom and stability, and building something magical in the process.

But here's where it gets really good: Shawn founded  the Cape Town Chapter of Silent Book Club, a movement that's brought together thousands of people to read in public spaces—from breweries to trains to parks. What started as a hope that five friends would show up has become 150+ people gathering three times a month, creating community around one simple act: reading together in silence.

Join us as we explore how our generation is redefining what "success" looks like, why it's okay to not have all the answers, and how finding your people might just be as simple as showing up to read a book in a brewery with 300 strangers.
