About this listen
In a world filled with noise, anxiety, and constant distractions, is it possible to find a space of peace and purpose? To answer this question, we travel back in time to talk with one of history's most influential philosophers and leaders: the Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius.
In this special episode of Mente Aprende, Dr. Jorge Franco "interviews" the author of Meditations to discover how the principles of Stoicism—forged on battlefields and in the solitude of power—can be our best tool for navigating the complexities of the 21st century.
Join us as we explore:
• What the "inner citadel" is and how we can build it to protect ourselves from stress and negativity.
• The key difference between what we can and cannot control, and why this is the secret to tranquility.
• How to apply the concept of "duty" and the "common good" to find a purpose beyond ourselves.
• A Stoic perspective on managing emotions, social media, and uncertainty.
This isn't just an episode about ancient philosophy; it's a practical guide to strengthening your mind, finding your calm, and living a life of virtue and meaning.
