231. Jules Evans: What Would a Stoic Do?

The philosophy of Stoicism is more than 2,000 years old, but remains remarkably practical. Like the modern wellness movement, Stoicism is concerned with how to “live the good life,” and offers advice on negative self-talk, building better habits, managing events outside your control, and reflecting on your day. In this episode, philosopher Jules Evans shares ancient wisdom (and plenty of pithy quotes) to help you suffer less and flourish more. You can learn more about Commune at onecommune.com.
