Who we are

Explore the intersection of modern psychology and ancient Stoic philosophy with The Synapse and the Stoa, a science-based self-help podcast hosted by John Sampson. Each episode bridges the gap between neuroscience and timeless wisdom to provide practical tools for mental resilience and personal growth.

In a world of surface-level advice, we go deeper. By examining the neural pathways of the 'Synapse' and the timeless logic of the 'Stoa', we unpack why we think, feel, and act the way we do. Whether you're struggling with burnout, seeking better habits, or simply curious about the human condition, this show provides a roadmap for the modern seeker.

New episodes drop every Tuesday at 5:00 AM - perfect for your morning commute or early gym session.
