263: Stoic Vegans?: 2,000-Year-Old Advice for New Vegans, Writers, and Everyone Else

I’m packing me battered Rimowa suitcase for a trip to Liverpool, Belfast, and Dundalk, Ireland. No matter how organized we are while traveling, there’s so much we can’t control—flights, weather, menus, other people. But the Stoics, have plenty to say about what we can control on a vegan journey of any kind: our choices, our mindset, and our integrity.In this episode of Vedge Your Best, I revisit the Stoics and connect their wisdom to both vegan practice and my 30-day writing challenge. Because whether you’re committing to a plant-based lifestyle, writing a book, or simply trying to live your values more fully—Stoic teachings are surprisingly relevant.What You’ll Learn in This EpisodeWhy looking foolish might be the first step toward real progress.How to resist short-term pleasures in favor of long-term values.Why difficulties reveal your true strength, not your weakness.How honest effort counts more than perfectionism ever will.Resources & LinksEpictetus, Discourses and Selected WritingsFollow my vegan and writing journey at VeganAtAnyAge.comUntil next time — remember: it’s never too late, and you’re never too messy, to Vedge YOUR Best.Subscribe & Review:If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe and leave a review on your favorite podcast platform.
