🌿 STOIC POETRY - Holidays Beyond Parenting
Channel: ☀️softypapa
Date: 2023-12-26

🌿 In this insightful video, we reflect on the experience of holidays once our children have grown and the nest is empty. Discover how Stoic philosophy offers guidance for navigating this new chapter in life with purpose and fulfillment.

☀️ THE GOOD LIFE CREED ☀️
The transition to holidays without the immediate presence of children is a profound one. Stoicism teaches us to embrace these changes and find new meanings in our celebrations.
