Mom Said "F U!" Freedomain Call In
Recorded December 2020
Dear Stefan,
I am a 37-year-old woman and I'm having trouble reconciling the current relationship I have with my mother. I was raised by a single mother. She and my father divorced when I was four. And growing up, we were very close. She was everything I thought a decent mother should be. She was very loving, supported, and always wanted the best for me. I considered her a friend and confidant. As I have gotten older, gotten married, and had children of my own, our relationship has taken a downward turn. I have come to realize that she is very immature and has very little self-esteem. And from incidents that have happened between me and her over the last 10 years, I have lost a lot of respect for her. I am starting to see her for who she really is and it's been a very hard realization. My mom doesn't really have a lot of people close to her in her life. Her immediate family have either passed away or she is estranged from them. And I have no brothers or sisters. So I feel like I am all she has. This puts a lot of pressure on me to keep in touch with her, plan addings for her and my kids to meet up, etc. But after a fight we had very recently, I am becoming less inclined to want to see her. I need help understanding my role in the life of my mother and what obligations I have to her. Would love to hear your perspective.
Thank you, Stefan.

Healing the Is/Ought Dichotomy
22 July 2025
This lecture explores the is-ought dichotomy, analyzing David Hume's assertion that moral imperatives cannot be directly derived from factual statements. The speaker critiques the selective use of this principle in secular morality and legal contexts, arguing that moral judgments often reflect subjective views rather than objective truths. The discussion emphasizes that engagements in debate carry intrinsic ethical standards, suggesting that while strict derivation may be problematic, a shared understanding of moral imperatives can emerge within secular discourse, enriching the conversation around ethics.

DOES TWO AND TWO MAKE FOUR? Twitter/X Space
Friday Night Live 1 August 2025
In this episode, I explore philosophical inquiries that connect deeply with our lived experiences, focusing on consciousness, existence, and morality. We examine the relevance of these questions in our daily lives and challenge the tendency to stray into abstract theorization. Emphasizing the importance of moral frameworks, I distinguish between deviance and dissent in the context of societal behavior, reflecting on how these concepts apply in our current socio-political landscape. Throughout the discussion, I invite listeners to engage actively, sharing their thoughts to enrich our collective understanding. We conclude by affirming the power of individuals to redefine their identities and narratives, encouraging personal growth and the pursuit of truth and virtue in the face of life's complexities.
