    Motivation

    In this episode, Beatriz starts by exploring meaning in life and somehow ends up talking about the underpinnings of motivation! Specifically, we look at my own version of "meaning in life" questions: why get out of bed? In answering it, we also talk about meaning and the various dimensions of satisfaction in life. And I think we arrive at a pretty satisfactory answer! This is a public episode.

    Worthwhileness

    In this episode, Beatriz reflects on her lifelong pursuit of a worthwhile life, and explores Nietzsche’s concept of eternal recurrence —- the idea that we should live in a way that we would willingly relive our lives over and over. Contrasting Nietzsche’s philosophy with Schopenhauer’s pessimism, Beatriz examines this thought-provoking question: If faced with the eternal recurrence of your life exactly as it is, would you embrace it or see it as a curse —- and what does that say about your life now?

Tune in for thought-provoking insights on purpose, what it means to live well, and whether we are, as a society, on the right path. This is a public episode.
