Thank you !

Magnificence is the virtue concerned with spending large sums on great undertakings — which is exactly why most people assume it has nothing to do with them. In this episode, we confront that assumption head-on. We unpack what magnificence actually means within the virtues, how it belongs alongside fortitude, and why its heart is interior strength rather than external wealth. Yes, it deals with big money and big initiatives — but the deeper truth is that anyone can live this virtue, regardless of their bank balance. If you’ve ever dismissed magnificence as a virtue “for other people,” this episode makes the case that you’ve been missing the point.
