Description

In this week’s show, I take a close look at how philosophy, especially insights from Seneca's 'Letters from a Stoic,' can help us deal with life in 2024. I'll discuss how these ancient ideas can show us a way to live not just with wealth, but with real purpose and authenticity. If you're feeling caught up in today's fast-paced world and want to understand what it truly means to live well, this is for you. Let's explore together how Seneca's wisdom can guide us to a more meaningful and free life.
