Welcome to the weekend edition of the Daily Stoic. Each weekday we bring you a meditation inspired by the ancient Stoic, something that can help you live up to those four Stoic virtues of courage, justice, wisdom and temperance.

And here on the weekend we take a deeper dive into those same topics. We interview Stoic philosophers, we reflect, we prepare, we think deeply about the challenging issues of our time.

And we work through this philosophy in a way that's more possible here when we're not rushing to worker to get the kids to school, when we have the time to sing, to go for a walk, to sit with our journals and to prepare for what the future will bring.

What if you were trafficked into a cult over shot nine times or fell in love with a vampire or went into a minor surgery and woke up one week later, paralyzed? What would you do?

I'm with Missaldine, the creator of this is actually happening, a podcast from Wondry that brings you extraordinary true stories of life changing events told by the people who lived them.

And from a young man that dunes his entire future with one choice to a woman who survived a notorious serial killer, you'll hear their first person account of how they overcame remarkable circumstances.

Each episode is an exploration of the human spirit and personal discovery. These haunting accounts sound like Hollywood movies, but I assure you this is actually happening.

If you follow this is actually happening wherever you get your podcasts, you can listen and add free on the Amazon Music or Wondry app.
