DIOGO COELHO | Creating Your Own Philosophy, Banned From Podcasting & Remaining Stoic In Hard Times
Diogo's censorship from podcasting is ridiculous but I was super impressed with his reaction to his setback.
In Conversation #63 Diogo and I discuss: why Diogo got banned from podcasting and almost from all social media, the Sydney protests and personal censorship he experienced, how stoicism plays a big part in his philosophy, his learnings from reading many of the core spiritual texts, depression and the complexity of the problem, a wild story of when he was in his favela back in Brazil and why he really doesn't want to go to outer space!
As always, we hope you enjoy. Mere Mortals out!
