Beings Club

Dialectic with Jackson Dahl

I interviewed Tom Morgan about why your curiosity is smarter than you.

Tom is a writer, community builder, explorer, and former Wall Street mind who surfaces modern and historical ideas about consciousness, emergence, and intelligence greater than ourselves.

This conversation straddles practical frameworks for living authentically and ideas that lean more “woo”—like the notion of a force that counters entropy, pushing the universe toward complexity.

Highlights:

- Why the world is wildly over rotated toward left brain precision and abstraction, rather than right brain intuition and connectedness

- what following your energy actually means

- how to think about life pivots when you have a mortgage

- why openness correlates so highly with wisdom

- Joseph Campbell's "follow your bliss" and why stories point at truth

- "minimum viable woo" and Tom's rational, but humble approach to crazy ideas

Skeptical yet? I hope so—and I hope this convo makes you more curious.

It has been six months since /beings-club began.

It is what Tom Morgan refers to as a 'Walled Garden' and 'Incubator for your next Identity' in this episode of DialecticPod.

Here are four principles we've worked with so far:

3. Beings Club respects diversity.

Once-a-month, a Guest opens a Portal at Beings Club.

These are special events where new ideas, practices, and perspectives are formally introduced.

Members are invited to take what is useful and leave the rest. We're all on a different path.

2. Beings Club honours change.

Conversations are not recorded and attendance is not mandatory. The journey one finds oneself on is a succession of steps into the unknown.

Members are invited to stay curious - to allow themselves and others to change at Beings Club.

4. Beings Club is a commitment to oneself.

Beings Clubprovides the space for *you* to happen within a minimum membership of three months.

This commitment is a shared and stable ground for new things to take root and a touch point for discovery throughout the change of seasons.

Thank you for reading! You're invited to find out more.

1. Beings Club supports curiosity.

There's no formally imposed practice or pre-agreed curriculum. Just upfront space to do your own practice, followed by unguided, randomly-paired conversations.

Members are free to make Beings Club their own each week, led by their own curiosity.
