Welcome back to Dying Every Day (Stoicism in a Year). This is Day 18, and I’m excited to share my recent conversation with Donald J. Robertson (author of the new book How to Think Like Socrates). If you enjoy audiobooks as I do, I must mention that Donald does a phenomenal job narrating his latest book—I highly recommend it! Donald is also the author of How to Think Like a Roman Emperor and Marcus Aurelius: The Stoic Emperor.

Today’s episode is segment one of three with Donald Robertson. This segment focuses on the life of Socrates and his influence on Stoic philosophy.

Dying Every Day (Stoicism in a Year) is a podcast by the Perennial Leader Project (and Perennial Meditations newsletter). Each episode turns a selected passage from Stoic philosophy into a guided meditation designed to help you (and me) contemplate what it means to live a ‘good’ life.
