These days, digging into real philosophy and virtues feels like a lost art. It was cool to bounce ideas with Ryan Holiday, a prolific writer who’s breathed new life into stoicism and modern philosophy. Ryan’s bestsellers like ‘Ego is the Enemy’ and ‘The Obstacle Is The Way’ have sold over four million copies and dominated bestseller lists for more than 200 weeks. We spoke about his life in Texas, how Ryan became so passionate about stoicism, what his learnt from Marcus Aurelius, the problem with today's world leaders, his mentor Robert Greene, his body of work and much more. Ryan will be touring around Australia starting 31 July, for more info click here.
