Episode description

Stoicism is gaining popularity among ambitious individuals. Despite its appeal in teaching how to deal with adversity and achieve serenity, it is fundamentally an anti-happiness philosophy. It promotes detachment from external values like wealth, health, and relationships, advocating for indifference and focusing solely on moral character. Tal and Don discuss why this detachment won't lead to happiness but to a life lacking true fulfillment and joy.
