The Stoic Compass

What is the relationship between difficulty and meaning?


Listen Later

Epictetus, Carl Jung, and Laozi examine whether difficulty itself creates meaning or whether meaning emerges only when we stop to honestly understand what the difficulty is actually asking of us. Through their debate, you'll discover why pushing through hardship without examining it can trap you in the same struggle forever, and how to tell the difference between suffering that transforms you and suffering that simply wears you down. By the end, you'll have a clearer sense of what your current struggles might actually be trying to teach you — if you're willing to listen.
