Stoic Wisdom : Ancient Lessons for Modern Resilience
Nancy Sherman · 2021
🎙 Narrated by Pam Ward
74/100
👍 Worth It
Sherman brings real academic authority to this, and the focus on moral injury and veterans gives the Stoic material genuine weight rather than just repackaged self-help philosophy. It leans academic, so casual listeners may find it denser than expected, and narration quality is unverified beyond a professional credit.
