Welcome to the Via Stoica Podcast, the podcast on Stoicism.

What is virtue, and why did the Stoics believe it’s the only true good? In this episode of the Via Stoica Podcast, Benny and Brendan explore the heart of Stoic ethics: the four cardinal virtues of wisdom, justice, courage, and temperance.

Learn how these timeless principles can guide your daily decisions, shape your character, and help you live in alignment with your nature.

We also discuss how Stoicism redefines what it means to live well, not through external success, but through arete, the ancient Greek word for moral excellence. If you’ve ever asked what it truly means to be a good person, this episode offers a clear and practical Stoic answer.

Dive deeper into the concept of arete:
