From Socrates to Marcus Aurelius - Stoicism for Modern Life
From Socrates to Marcus Aurelius - Stoicism for Modern Life
Show is on a break or finished.
The guide for life we wish we had...
In a similar approach to the Marcus Aurelius' Meditations for Modern Life podcast, but with the shared thoughts of co-hosts Adam Bates and Jamie Keeling adding the dynamic of two way conversation and their combined experiences through life!
For most episode the theme will centre around a different piece of text or quote from a well known Stoic philosopher from those attributed to Socrates through the words of Plato, or to Epicurus, to Seneca or others.
The aim is to bring you the guide for life, a life of happiness and fulfilment.
