The Via Stoica Podcast: Stoic quotes seriesIn the Stoic quotes series, we take a look at what the Stoics said and uncover the wisdom they left behind. We look at the famous writings from Epictetus, Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, and more.In this episode, we turn to a powerful quote from Epictetus, found in the Discourses, that asks us to reflect on self-worth and the price we're willing to pay for external approval:“For it is you who know yourself, and what value you set upon yourself, and at what rate you sell yourself.”What does it mean to "sell yourself"? And how often do we trade our principles, our time, or our peace of mind for things that are not truly valuable? In this episode, we explore how this quote invites us to know our inner worth and live accordingly.We also discuss the importance of self-examination, how our choices reflect what we value most, and why living in alignment with our true character is the key to Stoic freedom.For a deeper dive into this quote, check out the full reflection on our website:https://viastoica.com/epictetus-quote-on-self-worthAnd if you want to explore more quotes like this one, all properly sourced and referenced, head over to our Stoic quote library:https://viastoica.com/stoic-quoteshttps://viastoica.com/epictetus-quoteshttps://viastoica.com/seneca-quoteshttps://viastoica.com/marcus-aurelius-quotesMake sure to subscribe to the podcast for more quote episodes or our regular Tuesday recordings and interviews.

"Olaylar bizi incitemez, bizi incitebilen sadece olaylara karşı olan bakış açımızdır" diyen Marcus Aurelius'un felsefesi, günümüz yatırımcılarına korku ve açgözlülük duygularıyla nasıl başa çıkabileceklerini öğretiyor. Bu bölümde, Stoacılığın erdem, kontrol ve algı prensiplerini finansal piyasalara uygulayarak, piyasa çalkantıları karşısında sarsılmaz bir zihinsel kale inşa etmenin yollarını araştırıyoruz. Gerçek zenginliğin portföy büyüklüğünde değil, "stresten arınmış bir zihin ve kararlarımızı bağımsız alabilme yeteneği" olduğunu savunan Stoacı bakış açısıyla, yatırım yolculuğunuzu dönüştürecek içgörüler sunuyoruz.

Ever wondered what it's like to work with a coach who refuses to sugarcoat the truth? In this episode, we sit down with Paul Glover, the self-proclaimed "No B.S. Executive Leadership Coach" who's built his practice on brutal honesty and genuine results."I'm not going to try to convince you," Paul tells us about his approach to potential clients. "If what we've done up to this point doesn't convince you, then you need to find somebody else." It's this refreshing directness that sets the tone for our entire conversation about what real leadership development looks like.From discussing why empathy is a skill set that can be learned to exploring why human psychology hasn't changed since Marcus Aurelius was complaining about the Roman Senate (Camden's words: "complaining about going to work because the people in the Senate are assholes"), Paul shares insights from his unique journey as an ex-white-collar felon and "recovering" federal trial lawyer.Whether you're looking for a leadership coach or trying to become a better leader yourself, Paul's perspective on the exchange of energy in coaching relationships and why critical thinking is a learnable skill will challenge you to rethink what growth requires. Just don't expect him to be "soft and cuddly" about it.More About Paul:About Me: I'm the No B.S. Executive Leadership Coach, Challenging the Best to Be Better in organizations with revenue up to one billion dollars.  I'm also an ex- white-collar felon, a "recovering” federal trial lawyer, a TEDx speaker, an approved Vistage and YPO Speaker on leadership in the Post-Pandemic work environment, the author of WorkQuake™: Making the Seismic Shift to a Knowledge Economy, a Forbes contributor, a Starbucks addict, and a Chicago Bears fanatic.#10xYourTeam #NoBSLeadership #ExecutiveCoach #BrutalHonestyWins #LeadWithTruth #CriticalThinkingMatters #EmpathyIsASkill #LeadershipWithoutExcuses #WorkQuakeWisdom #RealTalkLeadership #GrowOrGo #PaulGloverChapter Times and Titles:The YouTube Rant [00:00 - 01:30]Otis's passionate plea for subscribers"Hit the stupid subscribe button.

In his book Stoicism and the Art of Happiness, author, therapist, and stoic philosopher, Donald Robertson, writes:"The Sage conquers his passions by becoming stronger than them not by eliminating all traces of emotions from his life. The Stoic ideal is therefore not to be ‘passionless' in the sense of being ‘apathetic', ‘hard-hearted', ‘insensitive' or ‘like a statue' of stone or iron. Rather, it is to experience natural affection for ourselves, our loved ones, and other human beings. And to value our lives in accord with nature."In today's conversation Donald will dive deeper into what Stoicism is, and what it's not.  He'll shed light on how Stoicism in popular culture is often misinterpreted -Inappropriately distilled into messages that tout self-discipline and personal responsibility, yet at the same time leave out what the stoics may have valued most:Wisdom, justice, and love for humankind. We'll also explore the possibility, and practices that might support us in living into Marcus Aurelius's conception of the Ideal Stoic:Meeting our lives, our work, and our relationships increasingly from a place that is free of passions, and full of love. For more on Donald Robertson, his books, podcasts, and other work please visit Donaldrobertson.nameDid you find this episode inspiring?

We look at the famous writings from Epictetus, Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, and more.In this episode, we explore a quote cited by Marcus Aurelius in Meditations, but originally attributed to the pre-Socratic philosopher Democritus:“The world is nothing but change. Our life is only perception.”What does it mean to see life as perception and the world as change? And how can understanding this quote help us become more stable, more rational, and more resilient in the face of uncertainty?We unpack the Stoic idea that our emotions and actions depend not on what happens to us, but on the judgments we form about those events. By learning to step back and examine our impressions, we can train ourselves to see change not as something to resist, but as something to accept, and even embrace.If you want to dive deeper into this idea, check out our full blog post on it:https://viastoica.com/perception-and-change-in-stoicismAnd if you're looking for more quotes like this one, visit viastoica.com — we've compiled hundreds of Stoic sayings, all carefully referenced so you can find and use them in your own writing.https://viastoica.com/stoic-quoteshttps://viastoica.com/marcus-aurelius-quoteshttps://viastoica.com/epictetus-quoteshttps://viastoica.com/seneca-quotesMake sure to subscribe to the podcast for more quote episodes or our regular Tuesday recordings and interviews.

Why do our days feel so short, even though life is long enough? How do we let our time slip away through distractions, regrets, and other people's expectations?This quote hits especially hard in today's world of overstimulation and hustle culture. Instead of rushing through your day, the Stoics urge us to pause and ask: Is this how I want to spend my life?

In this conversation, David Istier, founder and CEO of gutzy Organic, shares his journey from personal health struggles to creating a successful line of gut health snacks. He discusses his early stumbles with the brand that caused the need to reformulate the products to dial in taste and texture, the importance of organic ingredients, and the challenges he's faced trying to grow a brand in the CPG industry. David talks about consumers' growing concern for gut health and the difference it makes when you use quality ingredients, even if they're more expensive. David then shares his vision for the future of gutzy Organic, and his commitment to inspiring healthier lifestyles.Takeaways:gutzy Organic focuses on gut health through delicious snacks.The journey to gut health began with personal health struggles.Reformulating products to dial in taste and texture is crucial for market success.Organic ingredients enhance product appeal and quality.Gut health is a growing concern in the US and worldwide.The pouch format was chosen for on-the-go convenience.Prebiotic fiber is essential for gut health, which aids overall wellness.Balancing protein and fiber is key for a healthy diet.David's past CPG experience helped him grow gutzy Organic.Sound bites:“It actually started with a business struggle that turned into a health challenge.”“I ended up going to see a herbalist and that's when I discovered the power of plants and the power of gut health to heal my body.”“Gut health is such a big problem in the US, maybe worldwide.”“We worked with GoGo Squeeze to reformulate the product to make it more palatable, better testing, and scalable.”“It's part of the journey, like the up and down and the learning curves and the pivot and the adjustment, right?”“Only one in 10 Americans eat the five a day of fruit and veggies that people should be eating.”“Only one in 20 actually meet the daily fiber requirement.”“So it's like super delicious, a little bit of sweetness from natural sugars from fruits and veggies, no added sugar in it and also extra clean deck of ingredients.

Daily News Brief by TRT World

Hunger strikes erupt in solidarity with starving children in Gaza "A wave of hunger strikes is sweeping the Arab world in protest of Gaza's starvation crisis caused by the Israeli brutal war and blockade on the Palestinian enclave. Gaza Civil Defence's Mahmoud Basal started a full hunger strike, saying, “I won't eat until my people can.” He described the Israeli blockade as “systematic collective punishment” and called for urgent global action. Former Tunisian president Moncef Marzouki also joined in solidarity. " "UNICEF: ‘Enough is enough' as Gaza hunger crisis deepens " "UNICEF is sounding the alarm on Gaza's worsening famine, calling it a man-made disaster. Children are dying from hunger and malnutrition is now “catastrophic,” the agency warned. Food is nearly gone, water is below emergency levels, and aid is barely getting in. “Enough is enough,” said UNICEF, urging full access for humanitarian deliveries. " Türkiye to host new Ukraine-Russia peace talks "Ukraine and Russia are gearing up for another round of peace talks in Türkiye. President Zelenskyy confirmed the meeting will happen Wednesday, led by his security chief Rustem Umerov. The talks will also cover a possible prisoner swap. Zelenskyy said real progress depends on leader-level engagement and called on diplomats to rally international support. " Türkiye, Iran coordinate ahead of nuclear talks "Top Turkish and Iranian diplomats spoke ahead of nuclear negotiations in Istanbul this Friday. Hakan Fidan and Abbas Araghchi discussed the upcoming talks with the E3 nations (UK, France, and Germany) as well as regional issues like Gaza and Syria. The Istanbul round is part of broader efforts to revive diplomacy amid rising tensions." "Türkiye gets stolen Marcus Aurelius statue back after 65 years " "Türkiye has finally brought home a stolen bronze statue of Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius after six decades abroad. Once displayed in the Cleveland Museum of Art, the statue was looted from Boubon in the 1960s. After a joint investigation and legal push, the US museum dropped its claim. Culture Minister Mehmet Nuri Ersoy hailed the return as a major win: “We were patient—and we won.” "

Welcome to the Via Stoica Podcast, the Podcast on StoicismWhat happens when Stoicism moves beyond personal development and toward a deeper understanding of our place in the universe? In this thought-provoking episode of the Via Stoica Podcast, Benny speaks with philosopher and author Will Johncock, whose book Beyond the Individual explores Stoicism as a systems-based philosophy rooted in interconnectedness, rational order, and humility.Together, they dive into big questions:– What does it mean to be part of the rational logos?– Why is modern Stoicism often misread as hyper-individualistic?– How did the ancient Stoics view God, freedom, and community?– Can Stoicism help us move from isolation to social belonging?Will also shares the philosophical roots behind his work, how Marcus Aurelius and Epictetus inspired his thinking, and why the Stoic concept of God as Nature should not be stripped from the tradition.If you've ever felt disconnected in today's self-centered world, this conversation offers a powerful reminder: you are not alone; you are part of something much greater.Learn more about Will here: https://www.willjohncock.com/—Support the showhttps://viastoica.comhttps://viastoica.com/stoic-life-coaching/https://viastoica.com/benny-voncken/https://viastoica.com/brendan-hogle/https://www.youtube.com/@viastoica

In this episode of "Shark Theory," host Baylor Barbee delves into the complexities of managing dark days amidst life's ups and downs. Baylor challenges the common misconception that those who preach positivity experience only good days. Instead, he offers a realistic portrayal of the emotional rollercoaster faced by optimists and entrepreneurs alike. By emphasizing the importance of perspective, he guides listeners on navigating challenging times with grace and tact. Baylor shares personal anecdotes to illustrate the universal struggle of dealing with negative events that can overshadow an entire day. He stresses the significance of perspective, suggesting that usually, it's not the whole day that's bad, but rather one or two incidents that color our perception. With references to Marcus Aurelius's "Meditations," Baylor reminds listeners that we have the power to decide how we react to these events, introducing the powerful mindset: "This doesn't have to turn into something. This doesn't have to upset you." Key Takeaways: Perspective is crucial in dealing with bad days; it's often a single event that disrupts our mood. Quoting Marcus Aurelius, Baylor emphasizes the control we have over our reactions. Taking "timeouts," analogous to sports strategies, can break negative momentum and offer fresh perspective. Incorporating enjoyable activities can help regain positive momentum during a bad day. Staying resilient by focusing on making it to tomorrow, as things often improve with a new day. Notable Quotes: "This doesn't have to turn into something. This doesn't have to upset you." "You're either giving it the power to dictate how the rest of your day goes or you're making a decision." "Sometimes just taking the sting off it is enough to just get you back in the game." "Timeouts are critical. They stop the momentum of the opposing team, and in life, they allow you to see it from a different perspective." "It's always darkest before the dawn. But the sun's going to rise and things will change."
