Let’s be courageous together

• Do you regret not being more courageous in life?
• Are you frustrated because you don’t feel your life gives you opportunities to show courage?
• Do you feel that you are not naturally courageous?
• Are you lost because you don’t have a courageous role model to look up to?

We think that Stoicism can help.

Modern Stoicism invites you to Courageous Paths to Flourishing: Stoicon Women, a virtual conference taking place on October 1, 2022.

Following the success of last year’s inaugural Stoicon Women conference, this year’s event will bring together leading voices in Stoicism to explore the Stoic virtue of courage.

• Nancy Sherman, Distinguished University Professor and Professor of Philosophy at Georgetown University, will present the keynote address on courage beyond facing fear.
• Christopher Gill, Emeritus Professor of Ancient Thought at the University of Exeter, will present an opening address on the Stoic definition of courage.
• Karen Duffy, New York Times bestselling author and former MTV VJ, will speak about courageous role models and her latest book, Wise Up!

We are excited about our Coaching Courage session. This is a 90-minute panel discussion and workshop led by experienced Stoic mentors and coaches, including Sharon Lebell, Tim LeBon, Simon Drew, Scott Perry and others.

You’ll learn how to coach yourself to be more courageous in your daily life. You’ll interact directly with the coaches and other conference attendees to discover your natural capacity for courage.

We’ll end our gathering with a Courageous Circle, a “fireside chat,” where we will share personal stories of courage as informed by Stoic study and practice.

You’ll also receive a Stoic Courage Toolkit with guidance and prompts to help you learn more about how you can be more courageous.
