Flynn is a self-described dilettante, autodidact and occasional iconoclast, exploring physiology, psychology and philosophy through parkour & independent research.
Inspired by a slew of shadow-mentors from Eric Weinstein to Moshe Feldenkrais to Jiddu Krishnamurti, he is interested not only in the appreciation of ideas, but in their application.
A history of working with fear & anxiety in canines & humans (including himself) has opened a particular interest in embodied cognition, the feeling of safety and the nature of emotion.
The Online Exploration group is a culmination of his studies into uncertainty as a psychological constant, the consequences of developing awareness and the power of curiousity in learning. The group explores scientific principles from the ground up, creating teaching tools & seeking deep learning.
As a practitioner, he is interested in the interaction between mind & matter, the changing of perception through action and what emerges from embracing uncertainty.
In this rich and insightful conversation, Flynn dives into various ideas ranging from layers of sensory experience to the innate intelligence of humans. He discusses how the key part of learning in not the information, but rather the state of the learner and their relationship with the information. He also reflects on complexities surrounding the stories we tell ourselves. And, he talks about the research of the Online Exploration Group.

Devin is a teacher. He currently divides hi time between teaching Narrative Excavation, writing, and coaching physical practice.
Narrative Excavation is an introspective psychology practice he's been developing since 2013. Half a lifetime of competitive sports, overlapping with five years of full-time study in philosophy and psychology, followed by a decade deep dive into eastern psycho-spiritual disciplines and various physical disciplines: all of these brought to his attention the egregious shortcomings of existing approaches to learning, development, and self-understanding. His approach to physical training and Narrative Excavation attempts to reframe personal development within a paradigm of sustainable, value-oriented practice.
In this conversation Devin dives into the idea of civic value, and his reflections on the concept. He talks about the terms "community" and "friend", and challenges how they're used today. Devin and Kyle riff on uncertainty, curiosity and dogma. And, Devin shares his concern that often people make assumptions instead of ask questions.
