  • 39. The Modern Stoicism Survival Guide with Benny Voncken

    Benny Voncken, co-founder of Via Stoica, shares his journey and the principles of stoicism with Di this week on the Indomitable Podcast. Stoicism is an ancient philosophy that focuses on living in the present, accepting what is beyond our control, and using reason and logic to make the best judgments. In this conversation, Benny and Di discuss the difference between stoicism and the self-help movement. They explore how stoicism encourages self-reflection and introspection, while the self-help movement often offers quick fixes and external validation.

  • 38. Loving Yourself Is The Root of Healing with Isabella Young

    Trigger warning: references to child sexual abuse, violence, and self harm.

    This week, Di has a heartfelt discussion with Isabella Young about enduring a marriage with the narcissistic leader of a messianic cult who took the life of her son and emotionally abused her and her family for years before she was able to escape.
