“Show me a man who is not a slave; one is a slave to lust, another to greed, another to ambition.”

– Seneca
In this conversation, Michael and Caleb discuss how Stoics think about ambition. What does healthy ambition look like? The unhealthy kind? How do you navigate between the two?

Caleb and Michael talk through the Stoic tradition’s answers to these questions.
