The Pieces with Bimini
Tuesday, 16 December 2025 - 41 minutes
If we were going to summarise our guest on this episode of The Pieces using one word, it would be: joy.
David Larbi is a writer, poet and viral sensation who has captured the attention of nearly 2M followers across social media with his warm, joyful approach to everyday life. His poetry videos have showcased his ability to find happiness in the smallest moments – whether that's noticing the way sunlight hits a building or celebrating the perfect last bite of yoghurt.
David's debut book, "Frequently Happy", is a heartfelt guide to embracing joy, even during life's most difficult chapters.
On this episode of The Pieces, Bimini and David Larbi talk about the power of finding joy in everyday life, the year in Paris which transformed David's relationship with resilience and why sadness isn't a moral failing.
David also opens up about his journey from corporate life to creative freedom, why he believes manifestation is simply choosing to tell yourself good things will happen and and how shame holds so many of us back from living authentically.
