The Via Stoica Podcast
Welcome to the Via Stoica Podcast, the podcast on Stoicism that brings you the ancient wisdom of this philosophy to our modern-day lives. Walking the digital streets, Brice, Brendan, and Benny examine the ancient texts and tools through a current lens. The Stoics teach us to focus on the moment, and that’s how Stoicism should be approached. We have the foundation of the wise minds of the past and now it is our time to find the right application to this philosophy of life.
In our weekly episodes, we will dissect a wide range of topics and apply the Stoic teachings to them. It is our goal to show you the benefits of Stoicism and provide you with examples and tools to help you live a better and more peaceful life.

Stoic Quote 5: “What harm is there while you are kissing your child to say softly, ‘Tomorrow you will die’.”
The Via Stoica Podcast: Stoic quotes series
In the Stoic quotes series, we take a look at what the Stoics said and uncover the wisdom they left behind. We look at the famous writings from Epictetus, Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, and more.
In this episode, we reflect on a striking quote by Epictetus from The Discourses, Book 3, Chapter 24.87:
“What harm is there while you are kissing your child to say softly, ‘Tomorrow you will die’.”
What does it mean to hold both love and loss in the same breath? Epictetus challenges us to practice presence by remembering impermanence—not as a cold exercise, but as a way to love more deeply. In this episode, we explore how this ancient idea can shift our modern experience of connection, attachment, and grief.
