What Does Stoic Toughness Look Like In Practice?

Toughness gets sold to us as never flinching, never feeling, gritting your teeth and pushing through. I am not convinced that is it. In this episode I work through what real toughness might actually be, and why the chest-out version often hides something brittle underneath.
The Stoics had a more useful idea of strength: not the absence of feeling, but knowing what is yours to carry and carrying it without making everyone around you pay for it. I share where I have got this wrong.
