Humans of Purpose is honoured to host David Whyte, internationally renowned poet, philosopher and speaker in Byron Bay and Sydney, Australia in February 2025.

David Whyte’s talks weave poetry, story and commentary into a moving, almost physical experience of the themes that run through every human life, bringing the understanding of the poetic tradition to bear on the many great cyclical questions of existence.

In these immersive experiences, through David’s inimitable gifts of poetry, philosophy and storytelling, you will be invited through a doorway that attempts to give voice to the wellsprings of your human identity, striving and the possibility of a good, true life.  

At a time of year when we wonder what lies beyond the horizon for us personally and at a moment in history when we’re collectively wondering the same for society, it’s timely to be welcoming David Whyte back to Australian shores, for a series of deeply immersive experiences to nourish our imaginations, hearts and minds.
