Ryan Holiday: The Stoic Way To Calm Your Mind & Control Your Response To Anything!

Про цей епізод

What if the secret to a happier life isn’t controlling what happens to you, but changing how you respond? In this inspiring episode of Begin Again, Davina McCall sits down with bestselling author and Daily Stoic creator Ryan Holiday to explore how the ancient philosophy of Stoicism can help us find calm, courage and purpose when life feels overwhelming. Ryan explains why so much of our anxiety, anger and unhappiness comes from focusing on things we can’t control, and how the wisdom of Marcus Aurelius and Seneca can help us face life’s challenges differently. Together, Davina and Ryan explore how to let go of regret, overcome procrastination, build emotional resilience, and use journaling to make more intentional choices. They also discuss why accepting our mortality can help us feel more alive, and why Stoicism isn’t about shutting down our emotions, but learning how to respond with greater wisdom.  🌟Like, comment and subscribe for more honest conversations about purpose, resilience, love, loss and beginning again.
