Who am I, what do I value, and why am I doing any of this? Jack Maden, founder of Philosophy Break and author of The Philosophy Prescription, argues that philosophy is one of the most practical tools we have for living the life we actually have.
Drawing on classical and contemporary thinkers, he looks at what philosophy can offer on love, friendship, work, money, parenthood, midlife, loss and mortality. The focus is on the question of what to do when faced with the hardest decisions. Rather than handing down neat answers, he invites the audience into a shared search and makes the case for sitting comfortably with uncertainty.
