Why Good People Suffer

This episode tackles one of life’s most enduring questions: why do misfortunes so often strike those who seem least deserving of them?

Drawing on Seneca’s On Providence and the poetry of Octavio Paz, we look at suffering not as injustice but as a form of moral training and self-discovery.

Hardship, in this view, isn't a detour from the good life but the very terrain on which character is formed.
