A Stoic Mantra For Your Sh*ttiest Moments (And Other Ancient Wisdom That Holds Up) | Jonathan Haidt
54 min
This week, 10% Happier explores how ancient wisdom and modern psychology can help us navigate life's hardest moments—from acute crises to chronic struggles. The episodes range from Stoic philosophy's practical toolkit for suffering to Buddhist approaches to aging and mortality, while Terry Bradshaw's candid conversation about depression reminds us that even the most accomplished among us need frameworks for emotional resilience. Together, they suggest that wisdom isn't about avoiding difficulty, but developing better ways to meet it.
