What if ancient wisdom held the keys to thriving in today’s world? In Season 3 of The E-Word, we’re expanding our focus from equity to eudaimonia, the Greek idea of living a flourishing, meaningful life rooted in truth, virtue, and excellence. Equity is still in the mix, but now it lives within a bigger conversation about what it means to live and lead well.

Leadership strategists Karen McFarlane and Brittany S. Hale introduce Aristotle’s five intellectual virtues:

  • sophia (philosophical wisdom)
  • phronesis (practical wisdom)
  • episteme (scientific knowledge)
  • nous (intuitive understanding), and
  • techne (artistry)

These ancient ideas offer a modern framework for navigating leadership, creativity, and connection with greater intention. Whether you’re making tough decisions, leading teams, or crafting a message that truly resonates, these virtues meet you where you are and invite you to question the difference between what it means to be and create successfully and what it means to flourish.
