Excellent podcast!

I started out listening to Daily Stoic alongside this one, but couldn't keep up with both. the decision on which to keep was an easy one. This one feels less self help guru and more self improvement philosophy. Please keep up the great work

An excellent compendium to Stoic living.

Description

Stoicism is the pursuit of Virtue (Aretê), which was defined by the Ancient Greeks as "the knowledge of how to live excellently," Stoicism is a holistic life philosophy meant to guide us towards the attainment of this knowledge through the development of our character. While many other Stoicism podcasts focus on explaining Ancient Stoicism in an academic or historical context, Practical Stoicism strives to port the ancient wisdom of this 2300-plus-year-old Greek Philosophy into contemporary times to provide practical advice for living today, not two millennia ago. Join American philosopher of Stoicism Tanner Campbell, every Monday and Friday, for new episodes.
