In this episode of Mind Over Matter, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Jamie Ryder, author and founder of Stealth Help, to explore how philosophy and pop culture can serve as powerful tools for resilience, leadership, and mental health. Jamie shares how stoicism, ancient stories, and even superheroes shaped his journey—and why philosophy isn’t just for classrooms, but for daily living. From practical exercises like “the view from above” to storytelling through Hercules and comics, this conversation shows how timeless wisdom can guide us through anxiety, burnout, and leadership challenges.

About the Guest :

Jamie Ryder is an author, advocate, and the mind behind Stealth Help, a genre that blends philosophy, storytelling, and pop culture into practical lessons for growth. His latest book, History’s Greatest Philosophers, brings ancient wisdom into modern life, helping readers use philosophy as a toolkit for clarity, courage, and resilience.

Key Takeaways:

• Pop culture and comics can make philosophy more relatable and engaging.

• Stoicism teaches practical exercises like the view from above to manage stress.

• Ancient stories such as The Choice of Hercules still offer timeless lessons in resilience and leadership.

• “Stealth help” uses storytelling rather than preaching, allowing readers to absorb wisdom at their own pace.

• Philosophy offers tools like premeditation of adversity and amor fati that help regulate anxiety and reframe challenges.

• Eastern and Western philosophies together create a flexible framework for navigating life’s complexities.

• Daily practices rooted in philosophy can build resilience, self-compassion, and clarity for modern challenges.

• Wisdom, when lived and not just studied, becomes a lifeline for mental health and personal growth.
