How Many True Loves Are Out There For You? | Leonard Skinner | TEDxTralee
Would you sit across from your one true love and feast whilst they starve? Would you close the door on them and have them sleep on the streets whilst you rest in your warm bed? Would you rather work with, than compete against, your one true love? Leonard Skinner is an Irish author, speaker, and passionate advocate for off-grid and sustainable living. His most recent work, Love in a Self-Serving World, ties in with his doctoral research in the philosophy of love, exploring the depths of human connection and the essence of what it means to love. Leonard's work is a reflection of his journey—one that combines a love for life, philosophy, and the enduring search for meaning.Instagram: @leonardskinnerofficial
