Episode notes

Sally Kohn: People think there's a sort of magical solution to marketing a book. She says it has to come from an authentic, you know, raw and human place. "I me a lot out of my journals to go back to two thousand and four," she said. 'It's a record of the things at certain ages that i really care about'...

In this episode of Deep Questions we try something a little different: our first guest!

Bestselling author Ryan Holiday joins me to help answer reader questions, as well as more than a few queries from me. We cover a variety of topics, including his life as a writer living on a ranch, how he fosters discipline, the impact of our diminishing reading culture, and why everyone keeps trying to get me to move to Austin.

Be sure to check out Ryan's new book: LIVES OF THE STOICS (https://dailystoic.com/preorder).
