We've officially launched the first episode of Stoic Safari, and what a journey it's already been! First and foremost, thank you to everyone who tuned in to our inaugural expedition where we explored the fascinating intersection of Stoic philosophy and African wisdom traditions.
In our first episode, Maryam and I introduced the core concept behind Stoic Safari, how these seemingly distinct philosophical approaches reveal surprising connections when brought into conversation. We shared our personal paths to discovering these resonances and why we believe this exploration matters now more than ever.
The response has been incredibly heartwarming. Many of you have reached out with thoughtful comments, questions, and your own experiences navigating these philosophical terrains. Your engagement confirms what we suspected - there's a genuine hunger for wisdom that bridges traditions and offers practical guidance for modern challenges.
If you haven't had a chance to listen yet, you can find Episode One on all major podcast platforms or directly through our website. And for those who've already joined us, we'd love to hear your thoughts through the listener poll on our site!
Episode Two drops next Monday at 8:00 AM European time, where we'll explore "Resilience Across Traditions" - examining how both Stoic philosophy and African wisdom traditions approach building strength in the face of adversity. Trust us, you won't want to miss it.
Until then, may you find strength in wisdom and peace in understanding.
The safari continues,
Kwame & Maryam
