Episode 1 - Wisdom: In the very first episode of The Camino Stoic, Eric sets the tone for a journey into the heart of Stoic philosophy—grounded not in abstract theory, but in the lived, dusty, footsore experience of walking a very long way.
Drawing on his 2024 pilgrimage along the 1,070 km Via de la Plata from Seville to Santiago de Compostela, Eric connects the Stoic virtue of wisdom to the real challenges of the Camino: sore feet, heavy backpacks, cold winds, and unexpected rain.
You'll learn how wisdom, in the Stoic sense, means focusing on what you can control—your thoughts, your responses, your next step—and letting go of what you can't. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by life, this episode offers a calming, grounded perspective and an invitation to respond more thoughtfully and deliberately.
Tune in, reflect, and take your first step on The Camino Stoic.
The Camino Stoic is written and presented by Eric Fendley, produced by Viil Fjøse, with music by Stonecraft. If you find value in this episode, please consider following and sharing the podcast with a fellow traveller.
