Steve Karafit on Stoicism: From Farm Life to Philosophical Insights

Growing up on the farm was probably good training for stoicism.
What do farming and philosophy have in common? Quite a lot, as it turns out. In this episode of the Stoic Solutions Podcast, host Justin Vacula chats with Steve Karafit, the voice behind The Sunday Stoic Podcast. Steve’s journey from rural Ohio farm life to becoming a lecturer in biology and a Stoic podcast host is nothing short of fascinating.
They dive into how Stoicism helps tackle life's hurdles, including grief and illness, and why it resonates with people who aren't religious. Steve also shares how his background in farming has shaped his understanding of Stoic virtues like courage, wisdom, and justice. The conversation touches on ethical questions about animal treatment and diet, showing that Stoicism isn't just about personal growth but also about making thoughtful choices in everyday life.
Whether you're curious about how music can be a vessel for Stoic teachings or looking for practical advice on living stoically, this episode has something for everyone. Tune in to hear how ancient wisdom can guide you through modern challenges.
