  • #9 A Beginner's Guide to Stoicism

    In our first episode on pure philosophy, we explore the concepts of Stoicism. It is one of the most practical philosophy that we could practice daily. It emphasizes the importance of living a virtuous life, in accordance with society and nature. The philosophy has had a significant influence on many notable figures throughout history, including Seneca, Epictetus and the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius, who wrote extensively on the subject.


    Today, Stoicism remains a popular philosophy among many people seeking to cultivate a sense of fulfilment and contentment. We hope that you get a lot out of this amazing episode.
