Get better at living


Details
On a daily basis, most of us seek knowledge to improve ourselves—whether at our jobs, in a trade, a skill, a hobby, an art, cooking, or musicianship. But the ancient Greeks gave us something unique: a way to get better at living life—to do more than simply go through the motions.
But what does it mean to live the good life, as the Greeks defined it? Who should it matter to? Why should it matter? Who benefits?
Stoicism offers a framework for living the good life—Eudaimonia—by grounding us in purpose and daily meaning. It benefits, first and foremost, ourselves, and then everyone we touch with our Stoic grace.
People and things—even wealth in all its forms—will always fall short of fulfilling what our humanity truly needs. What we need is ourselves: a clearer, more thoughtful version. A philosophical, Stoic version.
Welcome to your friendly neighborhood third space, a sanctuary where philosophy and conversation intertwine like the threads of an ancient tapestry. Join us for our weekly Stoicism gathering—sip on a warm cup of coffee, linger in thought, and immerse yourself in the wisdom of the ages. We are humble travelers on an extraordinary odyssey of self-discovery, learning to embrace our circumstances while reshaping our minds in pursuit of virtue. It is a thrilling voyage into the depths of our true nature. Step beyond the curtains of space and time with us, where eternal truths await, whispering their secrets across the ages. Let's make this existence meaningful for us all — one lifetime should be enough.
Come, and be part of it.
