763. Why Modern Psychology Can't Heal Us: Coaching, Virtue & Human Nature - With Daniel Sute

763. Why Modern Psychology Can't Heal Us: Coaching, Virtue & Human Nature - With Daniel Sute

Author: Mark Walsh April 7, 2026 Duration: 50:32

In this episode, I sit down with Daniel to explore why modern psychology and coaching often fail to address what truly matters in human life. We dive into the ways postmodern thinking and our obsession with pleasure and quick fixes have left people anxious, distracted, and disconnected from meaning. We discuss the difference between vice and virtue, and how our attachments can act like bandages over the wounds of life. Along the way, we talk about beauty, truth, and the role of tradition in helping us orient toward what is truly good. This is a grounded conversation about recovering a sense of purpose, developing the soul, and cultivating habits that actually lead to a fulfilled, resilient life.
