Question

You probably want to use a View Composer for this. As far as I know the authenticated user is not yet available in your service providers boot method.

public function boot(Guard $auth) {
    view()->composer('*', function($view) use ($auth) {
        // get the current user
        $currentUser = $auth->user();

        // do stuff with the current user
        // ...

        // pass the data to the view
        $view->with('currentUser', $currentUser);
    });
}
