Virtue Ethics

In this episode, Jeremiah and E discuss how to define a good life and then what it means to make daily choices to move us in a direction of growth and health. Enter virtue ethics.  Thankfully, we are not the first to contemplate what a good life looks like or how to pursue an integrated self that lives out our personal virtues with authenticity and dignity.  Humans have been exploring this topic throughout recorded history.  Ethics, as a philosophical category, deals with the overarching concepts of what is right, wrong, and/or neutral and how those ideas apply to human behavior and morality.  Through virtue ethics, deontology, and consequentialism, we examine our core values, how they shape our actions, and ultimately move us into growth and flourishing.   As always, thank you for joining us.
