    Take a Bird's Eye View

    We’re going back to Marcus Aurelius’s Meditations.  In this episode we talk about and contemplate our own place in this world.  How to take a larger perspective and stop taking ourselves so seriously.  How can we stop overinflating our problems and enjoy the very short amount of time we have been given on this planet.  And how that impacts out children.

    "Of things some are in our power, and others are not. " -Epictitus In this episode we discuss the importance of recognizing the things in our lives that we control and do not control.  Adding this perspective can change your life and helping your child reach this perspective and outlook can be instrumental in setting them up for a life filled with happiness and contentment.

    Lead by Example

    Why is it so important to model the behavior you want to see from your children?  The Stoics had insight into our nature that outpaced the understood Science of their day.  In this episode I discuss the importance of actions rather than words, and we set up our first intention of the podcast.
