Description

This episode is about having plans and worrying about the opinions of others. Central to Stoicism is the idea that we should only concern ourselves with what is within our control - our thoughts, actions, and reactions. Everything else, including the opinions of others, falls outside this sphere and should therefore be approached with detachment. We will be relating this discussion to a quote written by Jane Austen in Pride and Prejudice.
