Over deze aflevering

<p>In honor of Mother’s Day, Ryan talks with <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTUXex1F-Jc" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Donald Robertson</a> about the powerful influence Marcus Aurelius’ mother had on his life and philosophy. Even though Stoicism is usually talked about as a philosophy shaped by men, Marcus’ mother may have been his first and most important model of Stoic character, shaping the virtues he would spend his life trying to practice.</p><br><p>Donald Robertson is a writer, cognitive-behavioral psychotherapist and trainer. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society for Public Health (RSPH). Donald specializes in teaching evidence-based psychological skills, and is known as an expert on the relationship between modern psychotherapy (CBT) and classical Greek and Roman philosophy.</p><br><p>Listen to the full episode with Donald Robertson:<a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/in/podcast/donald-robertson-on-marcus-aurelius-and-understanding/id1430315931?i=1000574897658" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> Apple Podcasts</a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/2uG08YomlqtY54Kr7ozVXA" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spotify</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTUXex1F-Jc" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a></p><br><p><a href="https://donaldrobertson.substack.com/?sort=new" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Substack</a></p><p>X: <a href="https://twitter.com/DonJRobertson" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@donjrobertson</a></p><p>IG: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/donaldjrobertson/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@donaldjrobertson</a></p><br><p>📚 Grab copies of Donald’s books, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/How-Think-Like-Socrates-Philosophy/dp/1250280508" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>How to Think Like Socrates: Ancient Philosophy as a Way of Life in the Modern World</em></a><em>, </em><a href="https://www.thepaintedporch.com/search?type=product&amp;q=donald+robertson*" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Marcus Aurelius: The Stoic Emperor</em></a><em> </em>and <a href="https://www.thepaintedporch.com/search?type=product&amp;q=donald+robertson*" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>How To Think Like A Roman Emperor: The Stoic Philosophy of Marcus Aurelius</em> </a>from <a href="https://www.thepaintedporch.com/search?type=product&amp;q=donald+robertson*" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Painted Porch</a> | <a href="https://www.thepaintedporch.com/search?type=product&amp;q=donald+robertson*" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.thepaintedporch.com/</a></p><br><p>🎟️<a href="https://www.dailystoiclive.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> <strong>DAILY STOIC LIVE </strong></a>| Ryan Holiday is coming to a <a href="https://www.dailystoiclive.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">city near you</a>! <a href="https://www.dailystoiclive.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Grab tickets here</a> |&nbsp; <a href="https://www.dailystoiclive.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.dailystoiclive.com/</a></p><br><p>🎙️<strong> AD-FREE |</strong> Support the podcast and go deeper into Stoicism by subscribing to<a href="https://dailystoic.supercast.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> The Daily Stoic Premium</a> - unlock ad-free listening, early access, and bonus content:<a href="https://dailystoic.supercast.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://dailystoic.supercast.com/</a></p><br><p>🎥 <strong>VIDEO EPISODES|</strong> Watch the video episodes on<a href="https://www.youtube.com/@DailyStoic/videos" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> The Daily Stoic YouTube channel</a>:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/@DailyStoic/videos" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.youtube.com/@DailyStoic/videos</a></p><br><p>✉️ <strong>FREE STOIC WISDOM | </strong>Want Stoic wisdom delivered to your inbox daily?
