Even though Stoicism is usually talked about as a philosophy shaped by men, Marcus’ mother may have been his first and most important model of Stoic character, shaping the virtues he would spend his life trying to practice.Donald Robertson is a writer, cognitive-behavioral psychotherapist and trainer. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society for Public Health (RSPH). Donald specializes in teaching evidence-based psychological skills, and is known as an expert on the relationship between modern psychotherapy (CBT) and classical Greek and Roman philosophy.Listen to the full episode with Donald Robertson:<a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/in/podcast/donald-robertson-on-marcus-aurelius-and-understanding/id1430315931?i=1000574897658" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> Apple Podcasts</a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/2uG08YomlqtY54Kr7ozVXA" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spotify</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTUXex1F-Jc" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a><a href="https://donaldrobertson.substack.com/?sort=new" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Substack</a>X: <a href="https://twitter.com/DonJRobertson" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@donjrobertson</a>IG: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/donaldjrobertson/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@donaldjrobertson</a>📚 Grab copies of Donald’s books, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/How-Think-Like-Socrates-Philosophy/dp/1250280508" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">How to Think Like Socrates: Ancient Philosophy as a Way of Life in the Modern World</a>, <a href="https://www.thepaintedporch.com/search?type=product&q=donald+robertson*" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Marcus Aurelius: The Stoic Emperor</a> and <a href="https://www.thepaintedporch.com/search?type=product&q=donald+robertson*" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">How To Think Like A Roman Emperor: The Stoic Philosophy of Marcus Aurelius </a>from <a href="https://www.thepaintedporch.com/search?type=product&q=donald+robertson*" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Painted Porch</a> | <a href="https://www.thepaintedporch.com/search?type=product&q=donald+robertson*" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.thepaintedporch.com/</a>🎟️<a href="https://www.dailystoiclive.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> DAILY STOIC LIVE </a>| Ryan Holiday is coming to a <a href="https://www.dailystoiclive.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">city near you</a>! <a href="https://www.dailystoiclive.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Grab tickets here</a> |&nbsp; <a href="https://www.dailystoiclive.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.dailystoiclive.com/</a>🎙️ AD-FREE | Support the podcast and go deeper into Stoicism by subscribing to<a href="https://dailystoic.supercast.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> The Daily Stoic Premium</a> - unlock ad-free listening, early access, and bonus content:<a href="https://dailystoic.supercast.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://dailystoic.supercast.com/</a>🎥 VIDEO EPISODES| Watch the video episodes on<a href="https://www.youtube.com/@DailyStoic/videos" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> The Daily Stoic YouTube channel</a>:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/@DailyStoic/videos" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.youtube.com/@DailyStoic/videos</a>✉️ FREE STOIC WISDOM | Want Stoic wisdom delivered to your inbox daily?
