58. Where To Find Your Meaning Sep 02, 2021

Show notes

We live in a world where people are quick to say that certain events (and even life itself) are meaningless. But Viktor Frankl, the famous psychiatrist, and Holocaust survivor believed every human has the capacity to find meaning in life.

And yet, if you go looking for meaning in things you can’t control, you can end up deeply bitter or depressed. In this episode we discuss our responsibility for finding meaning in our lives and how to start seeking it, using insights from Frankl’s book “Man’s Search for Meaning.”

54. Fearless Goal-Setting Aug 05, 2021

Show notes

When you set a worthy goal for yourself, you’re going to experience fear. But there’s no need to worry. As we say about fear, “It’s always in the car, but that doesn’t mean you let it drive.”

St. Thomas Aquinas identified five kinds of fear. In this episode, we’ll explain what they are and tell you about six virtues to help you grow in fortitude, so you can meet your fears head-on!

52. What is Buffering? Jul 22, 2021

Every one of us has a way we try to avoid or change an emotion we don’t want to feel. This is called buffering. Spoiler alert: It doesn’t work.

Buffering is a barrier to an authentic life and true intimacy with other people. In this episode, we’ll explain why avoiding your emotions always produces negative results and tell you a simple way to see whether a habitual action is really a form of emotional buffering.

In this episode we’re joined by Steven Rummelsburg, writer and senior fellow of the Cardinal Newman Society, to break open the topic of brainwashing. What is it? What makes you susceptible to it? And how can you strengthen your mind against it?
