Stoicism, Intentionality, and the True Source of Your Energy

Intentionality with Paul Kempff by Paul Kempff

Episode notes

Have you ever felt that being disciplined and rational was in conflict with living a passionate, energetic life? For years, I believed this to be true, and it created a major conflict in my personal philosophy.
