How to Become a Stoic in the Modern World

Rain doesn't bother you. But what about when the streets flood and you can't leave your house?

What about when you can't afford the home you want? When your investments plummet? When you're laid off without severance?

These are the problems that haunt our nights and fill our days with despair. Modern problems that no ancient philosopher could have predicted, yet the solution they left behind still works.

You don't need less problems. You need an unshakeable mind.

🎧 This episode breaks down how to apply Stoic philosophy to the chaos of modern life — money, career, loss, and everything in between.
