10% with Dan Harris

This is, without question, my favorite podcast. I listen on my commute several times a week, and every episode leaves me with either a new insight or exactly the reminder I needed that day. What I appreciate most is the Buddhist perspective woven throughout—it offers practical wisdom without ever feeling preachy or dogmatic. Dan is thoughtful, authentic, and refreshingly humble. He has a gift for sharing his own experiences in a way that makes the conversations more relatable without making them about him. (And yes, he expands my vocabulary occasionally sending me to the dictionary, which I genuinely appreciate!) The guests are consistently outstanding, and the conversations are intelligent, engaging, and deeply human. I recommend this podcast to anyone looking to be a little wiser, calmer, and more self-aware.

I’ve been meditating with Dan + friends since the New Year’s Challenge of 2020, before I even knew about the podcast. About 2 years later, I started attending a local in-person sangha. Today, I maintain both and have deepened my practice with daylong retreats, courses, and reading. I wasn’t sure about transitioning to Substack and then here, but this version of the app is at least 10% better. My favorite dropped feature is the streak count. As a recovering perfectionist and chronic overachiever prone to addiction, I am so much more grounded without the distraction of quantifying my practice. Instead, I am infinitely more mindful of my how practice improves and I am so much more resilient and grateful. Thank you to the whole team. 🙏🏼

I am new to using the new 10% with Dan Harris app as our all the other app users here but wanted to review because I have been so appreciative of all the content that Dan has been putting over the years with his podcast and recent Substack. I joined as a 10% member/subscriber maybe a year ago and am super satisfied with the experience so far. I have just started the new year meditation series with Joseph Goldstein and I’m getting a lot out of that. I hope to be using the in person (well actually remote), Zoom meet up to get more out of this meditation experience. But I feel so much gratitude toward Dan Harris for sharing his wisdom with his community and anyone else interested. He’s amazing. Such a great interviewer! It’s really incredible that he can be so vulnerable is so incredibly refreshing and uber helpful for so many. If I were the only person he helped that would be good enough for me! – Lol. I wish all his listeners many more years of growing in compassion, wisdom and happiness with Dan and his 10% community. Such good material - I expect to get a lot from the app as it unfolds and expands.
