The great quest - to find meaning in life. I devoted my life to filling all the roles, pursuing all the achievements, and engaging with all the relationships I thought would provide the greatest meaning to my life. Only to come to the reckoning that the world doesn't give meaning to my life. I do. Join me as I discuss how we make meaning from our lives and how we can satisfy ourselves in every moment, regardless of the circumstances. kevinmiller.co *Over 75 million downloads, 350 expert guests, 1,700 episodes...and the journey continues on the podcast evolution from 'The Ziglar Show' to 'The Self-Helpful Podcast' to 'What Drives You' to 'The Kevin Miller Podcast'...","last_synced_at":"2026-07-21T08:17:30.000848+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-kevin-miller-podcast-1066460"},"episode":{"title":"Managing vs Suppressing Our Self w/ Stoicism Advocate Tanner Campbell","slug":"managing-vs-suppressing-our-self-w-stoicism-advocate-tanner-campbell","published_at":"2026-04-10T13:50:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-kevin-miller-podcast-1066460/managing-vs-suppressing-our-self-w-stoicism-advocate-tanner-campbell","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-kevin-miller-podcast-1066460","url":"https://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/pdst.fm/e/cohst.app/pdcst/8V6C6E/pscrb.fm/rss/p/traffic.megaphone.fm/YAP9641501203.mp3?updated=1775829511","audio_url":"https://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/pdst.fm/e/cohst.app/pdcst/8V6C6E/pscrb.fm/rss/p/traffic.megaphone.fm/YAP9641501203.mp3?updated=1775829511","summary":"Stoicism has gotten much attention in recent years, making a comeback from the old school Stoicism, commonly criticized for promoting emotional suppression, fostering passivity in the face of injustice, and being psychologically unrealistic. Modern day focus has upheld the stoic traits that focus on cultivating inner peace and resilience through virtue, rationality, and acceptance of what cannot be controlled. Psychology models more and more these days are calling to the need for personal agency, and stoicism is a leading model for taking responsibility for our perceptions, values, and held beliefs in life. I appreciate seeing new personalities and perspectives come to the forefront of worthy initiatives, and in stoicism, Tanner Campbell has brought a fresh take to the concept. Tanner is an American philosopher of Stoicism whose goal is to clear up contemporary miscommunications about Stoicism, with a focus to uphold what virtue really is against the traditional interpretation of Stoicism, challenging the, as he says, “watered down Silicon Valley take on Stoicism.” A few years ago Tanner launched a podcast called, Practical Stoicism, that went relatively viral and quickly eclipsed 500,000 downloads per month. Which is to say the show did in months many of us podcasters took years to attain. Find Practical Stoicism wherever you listen to podcasts and Tanner also has a book out now, titled, What Is Stoicism?: A Brief and Accessible Overview.
