  • #380 - The Power to Change with Chuck Chakrapani
    Aug 26 2025
    In this episode of The Strong Stoic Podcast, I sit down once again with Chuck Chakrapani, author of The Power to Change: Stoic Strategies to Transform Your Life. Chuck shares practical wisdom on how Stoicism can be applied to modern problems—overthinking, fear, indecision, and the messy complexity of life.
    We discuss:
    • Why most people struggle to change despite good intentions.
    • The role of inner dialogue in shaping our experience of reality.
    • The “backseat drivers” that pull us away from virtue.
    • How to embrace life’s messiness without wishing for utopia.
    • The true meaning of courage—and why cowardice is more dangerous than fear.

    This conversation is full of practical Stoic strategies that go beyond theory and into the challenges of everyday life. If you’ve ever wrestled with fear, regret, or the chaos of being human, this episode will give you tools to reframe, refocus, and take back your power to change.

  • #379 - Justice Without a Gavel: Living Fairness the Stoic Way
    Aug 12 2025
    From the outside, my decision at work didn’t make much sense — it cost more time, more money, and even confused a few people. But it was the right call for the people involved. That’s justice in the Stoic sense — not just what’s legal, not just what looks efficient on paper, but what’s fair. In this episode, we explore justice as one of the four Stoic cardinal virtues, why it’s inseparable from wisdom, courage, and temperance, and why it often costs you something to live it. From workplace promotions to gym etiquette to keeping promises with friends, we’ll uncover why real justice isn’t flashy — and why it matters most when no one’s watching.

  • #378 - Recovery Is Not a Weakness — It’s the Foundation of Strength
    Aug 5 2025
    In this episode, I dive into something I’ve recently experienced firsthand—what some might call overtraining, but what I’ve come to see as something deeper. Yes, I was pushing hard in the gym, but I wasn’t just tired—I had adapted so well to the constant pressure that I didn’t even notice the damage building up underneath.

    That got me thinking about how we do the same thing in life. When things get tough, our bodies, our minds, even our character start to shift and adapt to survive. And while that can be a strength, it’s also a warning sign. Just because you’re functioning doesn’t mean you’re thriving.

    I talk about the importance of recovery—not just physically, but mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Because real growth doesn’t come from pushing constantly. It comes from pushing, then pausing. From working, then reflecting. From struggling, then recovering.

    This episode is a reminder: your strength is incredible—but it doesn’t always have to be tested. Sometimes, the most Stoic thing you can do is rest.
