Can Stoicism Make You Happier? | Donald Robertson
About this episode
Modern Stoicism gets sold mostly as resilience and acceptance. But I wanted to ask the obvious follow-up: can it actually make life more joyful? Not just calmer, but richer in awe, laughter, the good stuff.
I put that to Donald Robertson. This is the first in a series where I pick his brain on the Stoic ideas I keep wrestling with.
