from Alpha Bytes · host Barry Winata

Neil Durrant is an Adjunct Fellow in the Philosophy Department at Macquarie University, with a research interest in applied ethics, specializing in Nietzsche studies, friendship and practical philosophy. Does Stoicism have a problem? Stoicism has been around for thousands of years, but does it still have a place in modern society? The study of Nietzsche might have some answers to these questions.In this conversation, expect to learn why Stoicism may be flawed in its teachings, how the teachings of Nietzsche might offer a tough love but effective solution to all of this, the power of self-awareness, how people can use these philosophies in your daily lives to deal with hard times, the true meaning of “God is dead”, and much more. #stoicism #nietzsche #meditations #mindset #personal #leadership #motivationGUEST LINKS:Twitter: @drneildurrantIG: @neildurrant LinkedIn:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/neil-durrant-highered/ Article (3-reasons not to be a stoic): https://theconversation.com/3-reasons-not-to-be-a-stoic-but-try-nietzsche-instead-198307  CONNECT WITH ME:LinkTree: https://linktr.ee/barrywinata LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/barrywinata/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the.prompt_/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@barrywinata RSS: https://api.substack.com/feed/podcast/448257.rss Patreon Support: https://www.patreon.com/barrywinata This is a public episode.
