Description

On the eve of the publishing of his first book of poetry, A Rebellion of Care, we are excited to welcome David Gate to The Substance for the first of what will hopefully be many wonderful conversations (listen through until the end for a teaser of what's to come!).

He's blown up on social media as loads of people resonate with his work that's centered around joy and honesty. In this episode we discuss:

• His spiritual and artistic upbringing
• What he's learned from being a part of various communities
• Growing his audience when he went all in on his work
• The incredible cover of his new book
• His appreciation for the work of friends of the podcast, Stephanie Stalvey & Alissa Wilkinson
• His love of movies
• AND MORE!

We hope you enjoy the show and if you do, consider sharing it with the folks in your circle!
