About the episode:
Understanding Control and Choice: A Dive into Stoic Philosophy and Practice

In this episode of 'I'm Max', host Max Roeck discusses the key concepts of Stoic philosophy, primarily focusing on understanding control and choice. He examines the crucial task of distinguishing between what we can change and what we cannot, the impact such discernment has on our happiness, and its potential advantage over those who remain ignorant of this perception. Drawing parallels with the serenity prayer in the recovery community, Max emphasizes the power of the present and the choices we can control. The discussion encourages introspection and self-empowerment, and offers an enriching journey into personal growth and wisdom.
