What is ‘Daily Pulse?’
With self-isolation measures and lockdowns in place, the need for connection has never been more real. We've collaborated with influencers, CEOs, and celebrities from around the world to launch the 'Daily Pulse'. Taking no more than 10 minutes a day, it is a free global initiative designed to connect humans around the world.
Every day, we'll be releasing a new session lovingly curated by influencers and thought leaders such as Anthony Pangilinan, David Hertz from Gastromotiva, and David Choi, where they'll share insights into their lives and their thoughts as they venture through the same uncertain times as you and me.
As we journey through this pandemic together, we also hope to shine a light on humankind and your unique perspective. Whether it’s inspiring the world with heartwarming quarantine stories, reflecting through poems, or sharing what makes you laugh, we'd love for you to share it with us.
Life's more fun when you’re living life in them. Join the conversation here: learn-gnowbe.com/daily-pulse
