Turia Pitt's Pep Talk

The case for stoicism —is hope overrated?


Listen Later

Brigid Delaney wishes she'd tapped into stoicism a lot earlier. Its principles have helped her take more risks, worry less, and find tranquility. In a new book, Brigid outlines how this ancient Greek philosophy can be applied to help you in everyday life. I loved wrestling with these ideas. Letting go of hope? Imaging my child dying via 'negative visualisation' so I live in the moment? Difficult stuff! I hope these tools are useful or spark ideas for how you can approach the challenges going on in your world right now.
