In this episode, author Kasey Pierce shares her personal story of how stoicism helped her deal with her mother's declining health, create a new outlook on resiliency, and reframe her self-awareness. Through her experience, she learned valuable coping skills and began contemplating mortality in a new way. Listen in as Kasey and I also debunk the misconception that stoics lack humor and compassion. She explains how Stoics view resilience and the importance of choosing not to suffer, even in difficult situations.



We also discuss the importance of creating emotional awareness and using Stoicism to avoid victimization. Kasey shares her insights on honing the ability to detach from situations and focusing on controlling the controllable, rather than being overwhelmed by a situation.



Kasey also shares her experience of embracing micro-Adversities and overcoming weight loss overwhelm. She emphasizes the importance of finding people who are consistent and emulating their behavior.
