We Have The Potential To Live A Good Life

About this episode

“To live a good life: We have the potential for it,” writes Marcus Aurelius in his Meditations. “If we can learn to be indifferent to what makes no difference.”


This good life is exactly what the ancient Stoics believed the practice of philosophy would allow us to pursue.


In this episode, we look at how Stoicism can bring us internal clarity, the value of which far outweighs the pursuit of externals like material gain, wealth, reputation, and status.
