Manage episode 273381039 series 2688211
Ryan Holiday is a marketer and an author.

Expect to learn Ryan's 3 favourite stoics of all time, why the stoic writings still sound so relevant today, why ancient Athens was an ideal place for philosophy but an awful place to live, what the stoics would be most upset by in modern society and much more...
