The History of American Bookshops (From Benjamin Franklin to The Painted Porch) | Evan Friss
Behind every great man and woman of history, there's usually a library or a bookstore that has been formative in their life. Not only have bookstores shaped influential leaders, but also the ideas and movements that have altered society. Stoicism originated in a bookstore, Benjamin Franklin’s bookstore influenced the American Revolution, and countless bookstores have been the backbones of activist movements. Evan Friss, author of The Bookshop: A History of the American Bookstore, talks with Ryan in today's episode about the unchanged charm of bookstores over centuries, the impact of Amazon on the book industry, the role of libraries, and the romantic yet challenging undertaking of running a bookstore. 📚 The Bookshop: A History of the American Bookstore by Evan Friss is out now!

Unlocking Self-Discovery Through Shadow Work Journaling | Keila Shaheen
Journaling allows us to release our thoughts and feelings, but shadow work journaling takes it to a much deeper level. Shadow work is based on Carl Jung's idea that we all have a “shadow self” which holds our repressed thoughts, feelings, and experiences. This side of us is hidden in our subconscious, but impacts how we show up in all areas of life. Keila Shaheen, author of the viral sensation The Shadow Work Journal, joins Ryan to talk about what shadow work is, why shadow work journaling reveals hidden aspects of yourself, and how the Stoics spoke about the benefits of journaling. Keila also talks about navigating the unexpected viral success after self-publishing The Shadow Work Journal and what she has personally discovered about her own “shadow self”. 📚 Grab a copy of The Shadow Work Journal by Keila ShaheenKeila is also the creator of Zenfulnote which is a variety of books, journals, and a card game | https://zenfulnote.com/You can follow Keila on Instagram @keilashaheen and on X @zenfulnote🎙️ Former NFL player, Tony Gonzalez, introduced Ryan to The Shadow Work Journal - listen in to Tony’s interview on The Daily Stoic! 📓 Pick up a signed edition of The Daily Stoic Journal: 366 Days of Writing and Reflection on The Art of Living: https://store.dailystoic.com/✉️ Want Stoic wisdom delivered to your inbox daily?
