Navigating life with wisdom and wit. There are maps for almost everything in life — careers, status, achievement — but almost none for how to live well. And at some point, often in midlife, the questions become unavoidable: Is this the life I intended to build? What direction should I take now? How do I live meaningfully with the time I have? Philosophical Paths is for that moment. Hosted by Ian Macfarlane, this podcast blends timeless wisdom with real-world guidance for navigating change, uncertainty, and personal transformation. Not academic philosophy — but philosophy as the ancients intended it: a practical guide to living deliberately. Each episode offers: Clear, compassionate reflectionInsight from the world’s greatest thinkersTools for examining your beliefs, decisions, and directionWays to cultivate purpose, steadiness, and inner clarity — especially when the old maps no longer applyThis is a space for thoughtful adults who have lived enough to ask deeper questions — and who are ready to walk forward with intention.
