Can stoicism apply to military transition? | Ken Davenport - S.O.S. podcast #110

Can we apply ancient philosophical principles to transitioning? My next guest thinks so, and he has even written a book about it. 

Throughout humanity history, people yearn to know how to handle adversity, what techniques help us live well through it, and learn what these periods teach us about ourselves. 

Join us as we dive deeper into how we can make sense of our life’s past, how we can thrive through our traumatic experiences, overcome resistance, find your why, and so much more!
