Who Was Marcus Aurelius' Favorite Stoic?

Most philosophers wrote about struggle, freedom, and resilience from a place of privilege. But one Stoic’s story raises a fascinating question: what can a life shaped by hardship teach us about what it really means to be free? 💡 We designed our How To Read Epictetus (A Daily Stoic Guide) [http://dailystoic.com/ecourse] as a personal field guide —part book club, part masterclass, part daily practice. It’s designed to help you not just read the words of Epictetus, but live them—to turn his timeless wisdom into real change in your own life and the lives of those around you.
