What we’re about
The Thinkers’ Club is a discussion group intended to provide a fun, non-judgmental forum to share and debate intellectual and philosophical ideas with other critical thinkers. Come prepared to share concepts from history, philosophy, politics, religion, sociology, psychology, etc. that have influenced your thinking.
Members of all creeds, backgrounds, and walks of life are encouraged to attend. At The Thinkers' Club, we believe that intellectual discourse is best when we can explore - not dictate - views. On that note, bring an open mind and a friendly tolerance/respect for others' ideas.
Events are held virtually via Zoom.

When we reflect on history, it's easy to identify the mistakes of past generations. From denying rights to minorities to dangerous medical practices like bloodletting, our predecessors have made significant errors.
Confronted with these past mistakes, we often judge our ancestors harshly, wondering how they could have been so ignorant and careless. But who's to say that future generations won't view the 21st century with the same critical eye?
In tonight's discussion, let's project ourselves 100 years into the future. As we look back at the 21st century, what mistakes might we see society making?

In an era marked by rising mental illness, social polarization, and cognitive degradation, many individuals struggle to happiness, and have no notion of what it means to live the good life. The cost of mental health, and wellness coaching and therapy is often prohibitively high, and the expense of becoming a certified coach or therapist is equally daunting.
- Access to Mental Health and Wellness Support: How can we as THINKERS democratize access to self-help resources and instructor-led training for mental health and wellness in a cost-effective manner?
- Affordability of Certification: How can we make the process of becoming a certified coach or therapist more affordable and accessible?
- Collaborative Content Creation: Can an open-source platform facilitate collaboration between scholars and laypersons in creating and refining affordable and accessible course content?
- Leveraging Advanced Technologies: How can technologies from the fourth industrial revolution, such as blockchain, artificial intelligence, and virtual reality, be used to deliver high-quality, interactive learning experiences and certifications that are recognized and respected?
THE MISSION video is a proposal for an open-source platform, where scholars and laypersons alike can collaborate in the creation and refinement of course content that is both affordable and accessible.
