このコンテンツについて
In this episode, we explore one of the most damaging myths about stoicism—the idea that it demands emotional numbness. William explains why this perception is not only false but harmful, and how real stoicism offers something far more powerful: clarity, presence, and emotional understanding. Drawing from personal experience and ancient Stoic teachings, he discusses how many people are drawn to stoicism in times of emotional turmoil, looking for a way to shut down their feelings—but that’s not what the philosophy is truly about.
Instead, stoicism teaches us to understand our emotions deeply without being controlled by them. It’s not about building a cage around your vulnerability, but about standing beside your emotions rather than drowning in them. William shares how being present and embracing vulnerability are actually signs of strength, not weakness. He also highlights how emotions like anger and fear have a rightful place in our lives when used with wisdom.
Ultimately, this episode invites listeners to rethink what it means to be stoic—not as the cold, detached rock, but as someone grounded, connected, and emotionally intelligent. If you’ve ever misunderstood stoicism or judged others who do, this episode is for you.
