I have that framed on the wall of my office. It’s been a north star for me since I first read Meditations—the idea that philosophy isn’t something you debate, it’s something you do. It’s shaped the books I’ve written and the conversations I’ve wanted to have with people who take this seriously.
This summer, I want to have that conversation with you—in person.
I’m bringing Daily Stoic LIVE to cities around the country. An evening of Stoic philosophy, real conversations, and your questions answered directly from stage. No screens between us. Just the ideas, the room, and the people in it.
