Recently reread Ryan Holiday's book, "The Obstacle is the Way." In that book, Holiday outlines the power of transforming those ass kicking life events into triumph. It is all you can do. Love what has happened and learn from it. It all comes down from one powerful quote from Marcus Aurelius.See things for what the are.Do what we canEndure and bear what we mustWhat blocked the path is now the pathWhat once impeded action advances action.The Obstacle is the Way.I also include a pithy quote by Nassim Taleb outlining his version of Stoicism.

Women Who Lead 048: Betsy Cameron, Jeana Sander, Talia Tiffany | Bold Catalysts   Welcome back to this monthly series of Women Who Lead. In this episode, I'm sitting down with three lovely ladies in the real estate industry: Betsy Cameron, President of Ebby Holiday Companies; Gina Sander, Vice President and Regional Manager at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties; and Tallie Tiffany, Director of Legal Operations at HomeServices of America. We dive into the importance of legacy, bold decision-making, and the mindset shifts required to lead effectively during transformative times.   Meet the Leaders Betsy Cameron, President, Ebby Halliday Companies, betsycameron@ebby.com Jeana Sander, Vice President & Vice President & Regional Manager, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties, JeanaSander@bhhscal.com Talia Tiffany, Director of Legal Operations, HomeServices of America, TaliaTiffany@homeservices.com    Humble Beginnings in Real Estate Betsy Cameron: Raised in a real estate family, Betsy's journey led her from teaching special education to becoming an executive in the real estate industry. She credits her mother's influence, a foundation in service, and embracing both legacy and innovation as key leadership drivers. Gina Sander: Transitioning from commercial to residential real estate, Gina found a passion for guiding clients through major decisions. Her career saw acceleration through multiple leadership invites, leading to her overseeing 700 California agents with a focus on values, integrity, and authentic connection. Tallie Tiffany: With a strong background in law and real estate from a young age, Tallie blends legal expertise with practical business insights. She shares the importance of mentorship, sponsorship, and “lifting as you climb,” especially through peer collaboration.   Navigating Courageous Decisions Each leader shares their moments that required boldness—whether it was Betsy making the leap after 16 years at another brokerage, Gina uprooting her life to take a career leap, or Tallie leaving a secure legal job for the uncertainties of a commission-based role.  At the heart: integrity, compassion, and staying true to core values, even when change is uncomfortable.   Building Legacy and Fostering Inclusion We delve into how these women honor the legacies of their predecessors while innovating for the future.  All three emphasize creating space at the table for women, elevating colleagues, and developing skills through both mentorship and sponsorship.  They also discuss the importance of inclusivity and support networks within and beyond their organizations.   Real Estate and Tech: Meeting Today's Challenges Facing market challenges like affordability, inventory shortages, and shifting client expectations, the ladies highlight the critical role of education, data, and new technology tools, including AI and automated marketing solutions.  They stress adaptability and continuous learning as essential leadership qualities.   Favorite Quotes, Podcasts, and Books Tallie shares that her two favorite podcasts are "Women at Work" by Harvard Business Review and "Good Hang" by Amy Poehler.  Betsy shares that she enjoys listening to Simon Sinek the most.  Gina loved the book “The Four Agreements” by Don Miguel Ruiz and is subscribed to the Daily Stoic. She just recently finished reading “The Obstacle Is the Way” by Ryan Holiday. Also, her favorite quote is by Winston Churchill, “You will never reach your destination if you stop and throw stones at every dog that barks.”   When you help another woman rise, we all shine. And that's how we make an impact. So, let's build each other up and shine brighter than the sun.

AP's Lisa Dwyer reports that a Republican attempt to discourage Trump lawsuits has hit an obstacle.

Sometimes the biggest thing standing in the way of God's help… is us. In this episode, we look at the story of Naaman and see how pride can block the rescue God wants to give. Humility isn't easy, but it's the key to experiencing God's best.

In this episode, we explore how Stoic philosophy redefines obstacles—not as threats, but as crucial waypoints toward purpose. By adopting this mindset, we unlock flow even in adversity, turning roadblocks into redirections and setbacks into signals.Key Takeaways:✅ Obstacles often reveal the direction, not block it✅ Flow thrives when challenge meets skill—even in adversity✅ Stoic detachment helps us stay committed without being rigid✅ Resisting discomfort can cloud purpose; embracing it can clarify it✅ The obstacle is not in the way—it is the way Make sure to subscribe and follow me for updates, tips, and more ways to stay in the flow!

We will be wronged—by friends, by colleagues, by life itself. When that happens, we have a choice: to be consumed by bitterness or to rise above it. Marcus showed us the way. The question is, will we follow?

It's a good day to be a Geeky Stoics subscriber here on Substack! You all get first access to this week's video conversations with Ryan Holiday of the Daily Stoic. I told you about the trip to Palm Springs, and it was to moderate this panel tackling the differences and overlaps of Stoicism and Objectivism. To recap: Stoicism is ancient Greek and Roman philosophy rooted in self-mastery, emotional regulation, and letting go of things beyond your control. Objectivism took form post-World War II through the philosopher and writer Ayn Rand. It is about self-focus, individual fulfillment, and “rational egoism” or putting yourself first as a matter of rational thought.Ryan Holiday is famed for his books, "The Obstacle Is the Way," "Ego Is the Enemy," "The Daily Stoic," "Stillness Is the Key", “Courage Is Calling” and his new book “Wisdom Takes Work” comes out this fall. Millions of people receive his daily emails and podcasts, and most of what Geeky Stoics does would not exist without his work. It was cool to meet him and ask him some questions about the life well-lived. Thanks for reading Geeky Stoics! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work.Some takeawaysHoliday framed freedom as the opportunity for self-discipline. Drawing on figures like Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus, and even Eisenhower, he emphasized that inner liberty (freedom from passion, chaos, and internal compulsion) is central to Stoic ethics. Stoicism holds that true freedom is achieved through mastery of the self, rather than simple absence of constraint. In Ryan's books, he has called this “the empire between your ears”. Even a person living in chains cannot be truly forced to vacate their freedom of thought and action. For Stoics, unchecked liberty is a quick road to being enslaved by desire, and so self-restraint is not seen as a limitation but as a form of empowerment.This is an area I tend to strongly agree on. Richards, representing Ayn Rand's Objectivism, defined freedom as freedom from coercion (force or fraud) that threatens one's ability to think, act, and pursue personal happiness. Objectivism prioritizes the individual's rational mind as the highest tool for flourishing, arguing that the pursuit of joy and personal achievement is the purpose of freedom. It's not dismissive of self-discipline, and so Richards emphasized how a person can harm oneself with the pursuit of constant vice. Enjoying the panel discussion? Now check out our 1-on-1 interview with Ryan Holiday about parenting, Hamilton, and philosophyOverlap and Contrast on the panel Both philosophies value rationality, personal responsibility, and civic virtue. However, Stoicism is inward-facing, concerned with moral resilience and inner peace, while Objectivism is outward-facing, focused on creative achievement and individual flourishing.Holiday illustrated Stoic freedom with the example of Epictetus—a slave who, despite literal bondage, enjoyed greater internal freedom than Rome's elite who had to suck up to tyrants to make a living. Richards acknowledged this but argued that Objectivism's strength lies in its systematic approach, beginning with metaphysics and epistemology, and ending in ethics and politics centered on the primacy of the individual. It's very anti-collectivist. That point on collectivism is important because it's perhaps the most pointed area of disagreement. Most Stoics would say that all “goods” must be considered for the whole of a community. Objectivists, or Ayn Rand, did not believe “the public” even exists. Her philosophical focus was on living, breathing things, and she rejected the notion that the disjointed “we” was a thing worthy of acknowledgement. I am alive. The “public” is not. I have interests. The public does not. Stoics don't buy this, especially not Ryan Holiday. Now, go enjoy the discussion and tell us what you thought in the comments below.

Welcome to the Via Stoica Podcast, the Podcast on StoicismIn this special episode, co-host Brendan Hogle steps into the spotlight to share his personal Stoic journey — from first discovering The Obstacle is the Way by Ryan Holiday to applying the teachings of Marcus Aurelius during moments of grief, travel, and deep personal challenge.You'll hear how Brendan went from a “passive Stoic” to someone who lives and breathes the practice, especially during the loss of his mother and the unpredictability of life abroad during the pandemic. He also reflects on what Stoicism still teaches him today, which virtue he struggles with most, and why daily practice remains a challenge even after a decade of study.Whether you're new to Stoicism or well along your path, this episode offers practical wisdom, honest reflection, and a reminder that everyone's Stoic story starts somewhere.Do you have a Stoic story to share?

Catholic men — it's time to wake up.The battle is real, and it's personal. Welcome to Part 3 of the Daily Grind with Go.d If you're not actively fighting for your soul, your wife's, and your children's, you're losing ground. This is not a game. Satan is not playing around, and the culture of comfort is numbing us into spiritual death.This episode is a direct challenge to you. To stop sleepwalking through your vocation. To take spiritual warfare seriously. To stop blaming everyone else and start owning your mission as a man, husband, and father. I talk about the realities of hell, the lies of the world, and how most men are spiritually passive while pretending they're doing enough. Spoiler: we're not.I walk through my own moments of cowardice; not to beat myself up, but to show that if we don't face the hard truth, we'll never change. I also offer a clear battle plan: Confession, the Rosary, fasting, sacramentals, and brotherhood.

Ethan Kross, author of Shift: Managing Your Emotions So They Don't Manage You, explains how teens and parents can become adept at emotional regulation, manage upsetting feelings effectively, and develop healthier responses to life's challenges.Full Show NotesEmotional regulation—the ability to manage and shift our feelings—has huge implications for everyone, especially teenagers. It's a life skill that might just make the difference between thriving or struggling in adulthood. Teens understandably grapple with heightened emotions and can sometimes feel controlled by them rather than the other way around. But what if we could teach them how to manage their emotions and build resilience early on?The effects of emotional dysregulation can be major: kids who struggle with this skill are more likely to face substance abuse, school dropout, and even criminal behavior as they grow older. Meanwhile, teens who are skilled at managing their emotional states tend to excel academically, professionally, and have healthier relationships overall. The good news is that emotion regulation is a learnable and teachable skill, with far-reaching positive effects if mastered during adolescence.In this episode, we're joined once again by Ethan Kross, award-winning professor, renowned researcher, and author of the new book Shift: Managing Your Emotions So They Don't Manage You. Ethan has dedicated his career to unpacking the mystery of our emotional worlds, blending cutting-edge research with practical, actionable insights. As both a scientist and a parent of a teen himself, Ethan understands deeply how crucial it is to arm our kids (and ourselves!) with simple yet powerful emotional regulation strategies.In our conversation, Ethan shares eye-opening findings, common misconceptions, and accessible, effective tools for parents who want to raise emotionally intelligent and resilient teenagers.Why Emotional Regulation Matters for TeensEmotion impacts every aspect of a teen's daily life—friendships, schoolwork, athletics, and family relationships. Despite its importance, emotional skills are often overlooked, leaving kids unequipped to manage powerful feelings. Ethan reveals eye-opening research, from classic experiments to recent ground-breaking studies, that clearly connect teens' successes and setbacks later in life to how well they can manage their emotional states.Ethan emphasizes that there are no "bad" emotions—anger, sadness, anxiety all serve valuable evolutionary purposes. Rather than suppressing these feelings, Ethan offers strategies to help teens learn to tune into their emotions without becoming overwhelmed by them. He also tackles the "myth of universal approach," noting that always facing or always avoiding tough feelings isn't the right solution—teens must learn flexibility instead.Teaching Teens Practical Ways to Shift Their EmotionsSo how can parents and educators tangibly equip teens with emotional regulation skills? Ethan shares practical interventions from research that really work. For example, understanding how our surroundings influence our emotional states empowers teens to strategically modify their spaces to feel less anxious or stressed. Ethan discusses how teens can make small changes, like placing items or images in their environment that effectively boost their mood and sense of calm.He also explains broader methods, like the proven WOOP framework (Wish, Outcome, Obstacle, and Plan). WOOP is essentially an easy-to-use reference for teens (and adults) when emotions inevitably flare up. Ethan breaks down how parents can talk teens through this process, helping them clearly define how they want to act during difficult times—rather than becoming reactive or impulsive.Subtle (and Powerful) Ways to Help TeensSometimes offering too much direct help can backfire, causing teens to feel disempowered or defensive. Ethan reveals research that shows invisible support—the kind teens don't realize you're giving—can play a huge role in helping them build regulation skills. He's sharing small shifts, like subtly introducing conversations around emotional techniques or quietly removing stressors in the family routine, that greatly improve teens' emotional balance and confidence.We also dive deep into how teens can use sensory influences like music and smells to modify their emotions deliberately, and the importance of shifting self-talk—from a self-focused, blaming style to one that feels more empathetic and empowering.In the Episode...Ethan's extensive knowledge and relatable advice offer invaluable guidance for parents hoping to raise emotionally resilient kids. In addition to the topics above, we also discuss:How to help teens view intense emotions as temporary and manageableThe specific connection between pronouns and processing breakupsWhy avoidance can sometimes be a surprisingly helpful strategyHow shifting language perspective (like using your own name when talking to yourself) can rapidly lower distressDon't miss this enlightening conversation with Ethan Kross, where science meets practical parenting strategies.
