Debunking Stoicism and Modern Philosophy - Interview with Professor Peg O'Connor
I had the true privilege to interview Professor Peg O'Connor and discuss what is the meaning of life, modern philosophy and stoicism.
Most importantly what captivated me the most is her sincerity, honesty and openness in talking about her flaws in life and how alcoholism and an accident changed her life forever.
Thank you all for supporting this channel and feel free to contact Professor Peg on link bellow, Mario.
About Professor Peg O'Connor:
Peg O’Connor is a Professor of Philosophy at Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, MN, recovering alcoholic of 35 years, and author of Higher and Friendly Powers: Transforming Addiction and Suffering (Wildhouse Publications, 2022) and Life on the Rocks: Finding Meaning in Addiction and Recovery (Central Recovery Press, 2016). She writes the column “Philosophy Stirred, Not Shaken” for psychologytoday.com.
In her free time, Peg is an avid tennis player and a black belt in taekwondo. She has worked in dog rescue for about 10 years and finds that her faith in humanity can be simultaneously shattered by meeting mistreated animals and restored by colleagues who are fiercely loving and caring advocates.
Her own dog, Clooney, is a rescue and they spend their days together in the great Minneapolis area.
