"Stoic Aikido: Calm Is a Superpower"

In this episode of Our Friendly World with Fawn and Matt, Fawn explores the surprising connection between Stoicism and Aikido, drawing from both personal martial arts experience and philosophical insight. What begins as a mystery note—“Stoicism and Aikido”—unfolds into a deep conversation about navigating life with strength, balance, and emotional clarity. Together, Fawn and Matt discuss how to remain centered while the world throws punches (literally and figuratively), how reacting with emotion can drain our energy, and why calmness is a true superpower. With references to martial arts legends and pop culture wisdom from The Karate Kid, this episode reminds us that peace of mind is the greatest form of resilience.
