Ep. #314 - Strength Through the Struggle, A Reflection on Stoicism
from Kevin Polky - The Journey · host Kevin Polky
In this episode of The Journey, I reflect on the philosophy of stoicism and the impact it’s had on my life. I share how I was introduced to the writings of Ryan Holiday, and how his modern take on ancient wisdom helped shape the way I approach daily challenges. I also tell a story about Marcus Aurelius, one of stoicism’s most well-known figures, and how his perspective reminds us that obstacles aren't just in the way, they are the way. This reflection is about leaning into the hard things, and recognizing that through them, we can become stronger, more grounded, and more resilient versions of ourselves. Thanks for listening. — Kevin
