In the next season of the podcast, we are learning about Stoicism which is easily confused with being stoic ( unfeeling, hard, unemotional ) which is not the same thing as UPPER case Stoicism. 

Some prominent Stoics include: Bill Clinton, Brie Larson, John Steinbeck, T-Pain, Anna Kendrick, Cory Booker, Arnold Schwarzenegger, George Washington, Kobe Bryant, and quite a few others were influenced by Stoicism.

Gold Scout and certified Live Saver Claire Shenoi joins Shlok to give her take on the historic winter storm that recently surprised Texas as well as discusses how she was able to organize a life-saving event while managing schoolwork in the midst of the pandemic. From time-management tips to ways to stay motivated, to the value faith can have, to even an off-topic chat about fears, this episode seems to be the ideal episode to do some homework to. Oh and there's a bad pun in here somewhere so it is vital you watch it. 

More about Claire!

Some of the applications included Notion, Roam, Obsidian, OneNote, and more. We bantered about our favorite ones and how to get started for each along with the challenges with each.
