You don’t need patience when things are easy. It’s forged in the moments that test us most.

In this episode of The Ordered Life Podcast, Sean Gregory (Portfolio Manager), AJ Sanson (Associate Investment Advisor), and Anthony De Lazzari (Associate Investment Advisor) discuss the virtue of patience and how it helps us endure difficulty, stay faithful to purpose, and remain steady when progress feels slow.

They explore how patience is more than waiting; it’s the strength to hold firm in the pursuit of the good, especially when emotions and circumstances push us toward frustration or haste. Drawing from St. Thomas Aquinas, the hosts reflect on how patience “safeguards the good of reason against sorrow,” allowing us to act with composure rather than reaction.

The conversation connects patience to prudence, showing how these two virtues work together: patience steadies the heart so prudence can guide the mind. From financial goals to family life, this episode looks at how learning to “wait well” helps us grow in wisdom, discipline, and peace.
