Oliver Burkeman’s Four Thousand Weeks changed people’s lives. Now he joins us with a wise and practical plan for shedding our illusions and finding true fulfilment.


Oliver’s global bestseller was that rarest of creatures: a self-help book that inspired thousands of us to rethink careers, relationships, and big decisions. Building upon those ideas and those of his new book, Meditations for Mortals, Oliver will take us on a liberating and invigorating journey towards a more meaningful life.

Through fresh insights and practical wisdom, Oliver will tackle questions many of us face: How do we make better decisions when there’s always too much to do? How can we find fulfilment in the life we have, rather than chasing an elusive ideal? And what if real productivity is less about pushing ourselves and more about letting go?

Don’t miss this rare chance to hear from one of the wisest and most respected writers at work in the psychology and wellbeing field today, and to ask him your own questions about how to live a fuller and more enchanted life.
