Shownotes Why relational work has the ability to heal things that solo work can't How to be fully present with what's true in the moment Why deeper inquiry into yourself is at the heart of the spiritual journey The beautiful thing about disintegration and why it's so important Why hiding your power creates disarray Tom's top advice for connecting with yourself on a deeper level Bio From a young age, Tom Slater sought to learn through direct experience, a path that has taken him across the globe, immersing himself in many traditional and indigenous cultures. His quest to understand himself and the life he was experiencing led him to explore the very nature of his existence, often guiding him down challenging paths, including struggles with addiction and depression. Through this deep exploration, Tom gradually opened up to a more profound connection with his own humanity, confronting the limitations that prevented him from fully feeling and embracing it. His personal journey has taught him invaluable lessons, enabling him to be present with others in a spontaneous and creative way, facilitating their own process of discovery. Tom's work, particularly through The Sapience Retreat, focuses on helping individuals integrate all aspects of their being – mental, emotional, physical, social, and spiritual – in a way that fosters a true sense of homecoming, both within themselves and in connection with others. At the heart of his approach is cultivating an open awareness and a deep sense of choice, empowering people to show up more fully and authentically in life.

Keir Starmer's latest U-turn may be his most consequential. Last Saturday, he announced a national inquiry into the grooming gangs scandal.

Britain's free speech crisis is deepening. Police are knocking on doors over online opinions, and laws meant to target hate speech are being used to silence dissent. When Elon Musk highlighted the UK's grooming gang scandals, the media attacked him rather than the perpetrators or the people in power who neglected it.Tom Slater, editor of Spiked Online, joins me to break down how Britain is sleepwalking into censorship. We discuss the rise of authoritarian speech restrictions, how woke culture shapes media and politics, and why merely mentioning the background of grooming gang offenders is now politically dangerous.We also dive into Slater's viral Cambridge Union speech, where he dismantled claims that Trump is a 21st-century fascist. Is labeling populists as fascists a way to shut down debate? And what does this say about the political elite's fear of ordinary voters?Prenumerera eller stötta Rak högerI takt med att fler blir betalande prenumeranter har Rak höger kunnat expandera med fler skribenter och mer innehåll.

In this episode with Tom Slater of Baillie Gifford, manager of the £10bn Scottish Mortgage investment trust, we cover a lot of ground. Of course, we discuss his current thoughts on China and the Mag 7, including why he has trimmed Nvidia but still likes Meta and his thoughts on Elon Musk. Tom explainshis investing philosophy, what growth managers do differently from traditional value managers and how the firm's culture has made Baillie Gifford such a successful manager. Tom explains how he remains calm in the roller coaster rides of many of his stocks, with drawdowns of 60-70% common, notably Nvidia in 2022 on its way to that $3tn capitalisation; why he favours technical founders who can advantage their companies in the AI age; what Elon Musk said to him in 2013 and why that has stayed with him; the difference between investing in quoted companies and those in private markets; and why he and colleagues don't pitch stocks to the team, which he believes gives them an important behavioural advantage.
