What we’re about
Whether you are new to Stoicism or have been practicing its principles for some time, this meetup aims to provide a platform for like-minded individuals to enrich their understanding of Stoic philosophy, explore literature on the topic, and foster personal growth. We are happy for you to join us to explore profound insights, learning, and self-improvement as we embrace the teachings of the ancient Stoics and apply them to our modern lives.
Stoicism is a philosophy for those interested in living an intentional, meaningful, and authentic life (a life well lived) through the pursuit of virtue and love of wisdom.
