The Holistic Approach to Personal Development with David Hennessey

After graduating from Psychology school, David Hennessey realized he could find simple solutions for complicated things. As an introverted kid, he was always very contemplative, always working through ideas in his mind. Curiosity would always push him to try and make things better, more accessible, simpler. Traveling and living in three different countries with three different cultures and two totally different languages contributed to open David's mind and think more deeply about how people operate and carry their lives. 

Visiting us today is David Hennessey, the creator of The Wonder Technique, a Holistic Approach to Personal Development. David worked in a stressful sales environment for years, and after his mother fought and won the battle against cancer, he decided it was time to make his dream of traveling the world come true. After a long trip to over 23 countries and living long-term in three of them, he started thinking about how to get control of his life by controlling his habits. 

In this episode, David unravels the principles of The Wonder Technique; we talk about his journey looking for fulfillment, joy, happiness, and simplicity. We also talk about when and where his passion for personal development began and the relationship between change, simplicity, and consistent action. David kindly offered advice for those interested in making substantial changes, improving, thriving, and having more fulfilling and healthy lives.
