If the grand goal is this equanimity or this tranquility or this absence of negative emotions from you, then you look at the desire that's popped in and say: okay, if I act on this desire, will that take me toward that ultimate goal or away from it?
Imagine facing life's toughest moments with unshakeable calm. In this episode of 'The One You Feed', host Eric Zimmer sits down with William Irvine, a philosophy professor at Wright State University, to explore the practical side of Stoicism. Irvine, the author of *The Stoic Challenge: A Philosopher’s Guide to Becoming Tougher, Calmer, and More Resilient*, shares his wisdom on how Stoic principles can help us navigate life's ups and downs with grace and strength.
They discuss techniques for turning negative emotions into positive actions, the importance of setting meaningful goals, and the value of empathy and emotional intelligence. Whether you're new to Stoicism or looking to deepen your practice, this episode offers actionable insights and exercises to help you live a more resilient and purposeful life.
