Deep dives
Embracing What Life Throws at You
Epictetus encourages us to accept the things we cannot control and embrace them as part of our fate. Rather than wasting time wishing things were different, we should focus on our response to the challenges life presents. No one truly knows what should or shouldn't have happened, so it is better to love and accept our fate. Embracing the unexpected allows us to concentrate on what we can control and respond to life's circumstances in the best possible way.
The Stoic Coffee House Community
The Stoic Coffee Break podcast has inspired the creation of the Stoic Coffee House community, aimed at helping individuals implement Stoic principles in their daily lives. This community provides opportunities to connect with like-minded individuals, participate in the Mind Over Mood 30 Day Stoic Challenge course, and access additional content, including meditations, discussions, and a book club. By becoming a part of this community, individuals can benefit from the support and resources available to help them grow and live by Stoic philosophy.
