In this episode of Perennial Wisdom, my guest is Brittany Polat (co-author of Stoic Ethics: The Basics). In the conversation, we explore the application of Stoicism in relationships, love, and ethics. You can expect to learn the importance of stepping back to gain perspective in relationships, the dichotomy of control in family dynamics, and the concept of indifference in Stoicism. 


Key Takeaways

  • Why cultivating a Stoic mindset takes time and practice
  • How self-awareness connects with personal growth
  • The role of compassion in Stoic philosophy
  • Understanding our beliefs helps us manage our emotions
