#55 - Keep the Promise to Yourself : A Practical Toolkit for the New Year

Season 1 · Episode 55

Thursday, December 18, 2025 • Duration 19:57

Hello, Friends! This is Stoicism for the year ahead. Stoicism for Filipinos who’ve lived through typhoons, brownouts, unpredictability, pasaway coworkers, difficult family dynamics, and the chaos of modern work. Stoicism for anyone — anywhere — who wants their goals to finally stick.

#53 - Scrolling Without Surrendering Your Mind

Thursday, October 16, 2025 • Duration 13:03

Hello, friends! Thanks for tuning in to the 53rd episode! Sorry for the late upload :)

How do we deal with the storm of opinions that we see online? How do we avoid being swept into an echo chamber? When we scroll endlessly, or let breaking news set our emotional thermostat, we’re surrendering our clarity. We’re letting the storm set the terms of our peace.

And the Stoic call is simple: don’t give that power away.

#51 - You're Not Saving Them, You're Losing You

Season 1 · Episode 51

Wednesday, July 30, 2025 • Duration 15:00

Hello, Friends! In the beginning, toxic relationships rarely look toxic. Often, they begin with charm. Attention. Love bombing, even. They say the right things. They mirror your dreams. And before you know it, you’re attached to an idea of who they could be—not who they really are.

#50 - Daily Meditations For Moms & Dads

Season 1 · Episode 50

Wednesday, July 2, 2025 • Duration 14:58

Parenthood isn’t an interruption to the Stoic path—it is the path. It gives us countless opportunities to practice the virtues the Stoics held dear: patience, wisdom, justice, courage, and above all, presence. You don’t have to be unshakeable. You don’t have to be perfect. You just have to return, again and again, to your values. To breathe through the chaos. To act with clarity, not impulse. To remember what you control and what you don’t..

#48 - When Convenience Makes You Weak

Season 1 · Episode 48

Wednesday, May 28, 2025 • Duration 12:30

In an age where comfort is sold as identity and convenience feels like freedom, how does a modern Stoic walk the line between living well and living wisely? Let us explore how to own comfort without being owned by it, and how detachment—not denial—is the true mark of inner wealth.

#47 - The Long Goodbye To Who You Used To Be

Season 1 · Episode 47

Sunday, May 18, 2025 • Duration 13:37

Hello, friends! Thanks for tuning in to our 47th episode. We rarely notice when it starts—that slow erosion of the self we thought was permanent. The body stiffens. The dreams shift. The mirror tells a quieter story. In this episode, we explore the Stoic response to identity, aging, and the slow evolution of self that so many resist but none can avoid.

#46 - When The Mind Won’t Shut Up

Tuesday, May 6, 2025 • Duration 16:26

Hello, Friends! Your mind means well. It wants to prepare and protect you. It wants to help you solve every possible problem before it happens. But somewhere along the way, thinking becomes overthinking—and instead of clarity, it gives you paralysis. In this episode, we explore the path to peace through simplicity of thought. This isn’t about suppressing thought—it’s about reclaiming control and learning to think just enough.
