Embracing Stoic Compassion: Lightening the Burden for Others

"When things get hard, a Stoic steps up. We’ve talked about that before. We do this because we know we can carry a heavy load, a load heavier than most people. 

That’s what Marcus Aurelius was saying when he said it doesn’t matter whether something is fortunate or unfortunate. What’s fortunate, he said, is that it happened to you."

Ryan discusses the benefits that abound when you help others in today's Daily Stoic Podcast.
