Life Well Lived

Philosophers throughout history have debated what it means to live a good life, and it remains an ongoing and unresolved question. Deep personal relationships, fulfilling work, faith and spirituality — these are just a few of the ingredients for a quality life, and they differ for every one of us. In this collection of sessions from the 2023 Aspen Ideas Festival, our speakers explore all sorts of burning existential questions. Who are we responsible for? How has technology changed how we experience happiness? What do our religious traditions tell us about how to build a meaningful life? And is life ever "good enough"?
