Stoic Solutions Podcast

You're listening to the Stoic Solutions Podcast - practical wisdom for everyday life inspired by the ancient tradition of Stoic Philosophy from Greece and Rome. I'm your host, Justin Vacula. This is episode 96 – Piotr Stankiewicz – Stoicism in a Pandemic. We talk about mental health; the importance of a strong mindset and how to cultivate it; flexibility; personal responsibility; moderation; and how to live a fulilling life. Piotr is a philosopher, author, and teacher specializing in Stoicism based in Warsaw, Poland. He writes in English and in Polish captivated by the idea that Stoicism is not only a school of philosophy from a Classics textbook, but a viable philosophy of life for modern times. He is a member of the Modern Stoicism team, an international network of scholars and authors promoting Stoic philosophy. In 2019, with Vernon Press, he published 'Does Happiness Write Blank Pages? On Stoicism and Artistic Creativity.' His book 'A Manual of Reformed Stoicism' was published in 2020. See show notes for links to his websites, Facebook page, and contact information.
