Episode notes

In this chapter, they discuss the Stoic philosophy of being at peace with whatever comes or doesn't come, while also striving for what we want in our lives. They emphasize the importance of avoiding things we don't want to see manifest in our lives or society, but being at peace with the possibility. Stoicism is focused on context and balance, where there is no absolute right or wrong, only what is appropriate or inappropriate depending on the situation and person.
