Should you care what other people think? Socrates says NO! In this episode, we explore what ancient philosophy can teach us about modern social pressure. Drawing from Socrates’ dialogue with Crito, we unpack why caring too much about public opinion can sabotage your clarity, confidence, and personal growth. You’ll learn how psychological traps like the Bandwagon Effect and Risky Shift distort your thinking, and how Socratic wisdom can help you think independently and live more authentically. If you’re tired of following the crowd and want a philosophy of self-improvement rooted in reason, this episode is your guide to the wisdom of Socrates.
