In this podcast lesson with Donald Robertson, we discuss how modern Stoicism often focuses on self-control and resilience, but ask if we’ve overlooked its most important lesson. True Stoicism is about strength through compassion. Marcus Aurelius believed that anger is weakness and that true power comes from brotherly love and justice. Yet today, Stoicism is often misrepresented as cold, emotionless, and distant.
