Why You Should Try Voluntary Hardship (Interview with Jon Brooks)
This episode is a welcome return to the podcast for my friend Jon Brooks, creator of the Stoic Handbook.
Jon and I had a great conversation, and he shared a lot of really valuable insights and practical guidance on the topic of voluntary hardship and what that means in the context of Stoicism.
I hope you enjoy the episode and that you find it as useful to reflect on as I did afterward.
