Ask Daily Stoic: Ryan and Mark Manson Discuss What You Should Actually Give a F*** About

Aug. 28, 2020

I enjoyed listening to this podcast because of its modern, matter-of-fact discussion about self and ego. Their description of their own life experience makes me feel like finding the balance between ego + identity is a common struggle and they share their misconception that the grass is greener on the other side. It was a good listen and I gained a change in my perspective for ego + identity.

With love,
