  • Own What's Yours: The Dichotomy of Control (From The Vault)
    Feb 16 2026

    This episode is a full lesson from one of the premium courses inside The Stoic Vault — my membership community for people who practise Stoicism, not just read about it.

    The lesson comes from the course Stoic Morning Routine: Start Calm and Strong. It covers the dichotomy of control — the single most useful idea in Stoic philosophy, and the one that changes everything when it actually lands.

    You'll take one real concern from your day and sort it into two columns: what's mine and what isn't. Outcomes, other people's reactions, delays — not mine. Preparation, breath, tone, when I choose to begin — mine. Then you'll pick one controllable action that matters today and state it clearly.

    This isn't theory. You'll feel the difference in the body when you stop carrying what was never yours.

    If this resonates, the full course and 9 others are inside The Stoic Vault, alongside guided meditations, weekly practices, live coaching, and a quiet community of 100+ members doing the work.

  • The Stoic Vault: What I Built and Why
    Feb 2 2026

    About two years ago, I hit a wall.

    I'd been teaching Stoicism for years. Writing about it. Making podcasts about it. And I was still losing my temper. Still spiraling over emails. Still lying awake replaying conversations.

    I knew the philosophy cold. And I couldn't apply it when it mattered.

    That's when I started asking: what would actually help me? Not more books. Not more content. Something with structure. Accountability. Personal guidance. A quiet place to train.

    I couldn't find it. So I built it.

    In this episode, I'm introducing The Stoic Vault—a training ground for people who've read the books but struggle to apply them. I'll walk you through what's inside, who it's for, and how to join as a founding member.

  • What the Stoics Actually Meant by Practice
    Jan 29 2026

    Send us a text

    Epictetus didn't write books. He ran a school where students lived for years, practicing responses to insults, hardship, and loss. Marcus Aurelius wrote the Meditations as a daily training regimen—the same ideas, over and over, drilling them into his reflexes. Seneca reviewed his day every single night for decades.

    The Stoics weren't building a library. They were building a gymnasium for the soul.

    Somewhere along the way, we forgot this. We turned philosophy into content to consume. We read about the exercises instead of doing them.

    In this episode, I explore what Stoic training actually looked like, why our modern approach would baffle the ancients, and what practice looks like in daily life—not in theory, but in the specific exercises you can start today.

    Plus: I've been working on something to make this kind of structured practice easier. I'll share more soon.
