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.
