Discussing Ayn Rand, Objectivism, and Self-Help – with Thomas Walker-Werth


In this episode of The Rational Egoist, Michael Liebowitz speaks with Thomas Walker-Werth, a writer, speaker, and instructor focused on philosophy and self-development. As the founder of Reason for Living, managing editor of The Objective Standard, and fellow at both the Objective Standard Institute and the Foundation for Economic Education, Thomas brings a wealth of insight to a discussion on Ayn Rand, Objectivism, and how rational philosophy can empower personal growth. They explore the intersection of ethics and self-help, the role of reason in living a flourishing life, and how Objectivist ideas apply to real-world challenges. This is an inspiring and intellectually rich conversation for anyone striving to live purposefully and think independently.

Michael Leibowitz, host of The Rational Egoist podcast, is a philosopher and political activist who draws inspiration from Ayn Rand’s philosophy, advocating for reason, rational self-interest, and individualism. His journey from a 25-year prison sentence to a prominent voice in the libertarian and Objectivist communities highlights the transformative impact of embracing these principles. Leibowitz actively participates in political debates and produces content aimed at promoting individual rights and freedoms. He is the co-author of “Down the Rabbit Hole: How the Culture of Correction Encourages Crime” and “View from a Cage: From Convict to Crusader for Liberty,” which explore societal issues and his personal evolution through Rand’s teachings.
