About this episode
Strength carries many meanings - there's strength of mind, of body of spirit to name a few. Ancient philosophers would have used a term closer to "fortitude" which means the same thing. There are many reasons why strength is a virtue, but we could also pose the question in a different way: why is being weak a problem? In this episode, I talk about why weakness is a problem, what it causes us to do, and why we should aim for strength. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
