#86 - Kai Whiting and Practical Stoicism

In this episode, I have the privilege of speaking with Dr. Kai Whiting who is a lecturer and researcher in sustainability and Stoicism. Kai also just released a book, Being Better: Stoicism For A World Worth Living In, which he co-authored with Leonidas Konstantakos. One of my core values with this podcast is keeping it open to discuss any topic, especially those that may not be the easiest to discuss (or hear). Myself and Kai definitely test those boundaries. We cover Stoicism (including the not-so-nice bits), ideologies, relationships of all sexualities, the moment when everything changed for Kai, etc. Life isn't always easy, but Stoicism is a great model for how to navigate that complexity. My hope is that we demonstrate that through this discussion. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
