Philosophy has a branding problem. Dead guys, togas, and tweed jackets might come to mind, but what if philosophy is actually the plumbing behind all our thinking? In this episode, Amy and Ben unpack the often misunderstood world of philosophy, and why it matters more than ever.
From asking big questions with kids, to facilitating thoughtful workplace conversations, they explore how philosophy shows up in classrooms, boardrooms, and dinner tables, often without us even realizing it. Plus, a few favourite stories from Amy’s time running philosophy workshops for kids and teams.
Whether you’re a lifelong learner or just someone who’s ever wondered “why,” this one’s for you.
