    Alexi Pappas on Ditching Goals and Her Strategy For Maximizing Mentorship
    Feb 5 2025

Alexi joins Ryan to talk about falling in love with the process vs. achieving a goal, simplifying life’s decisions, and how losing her mom led her to seek mentorship everywhere. Alexi Pappas is an Olympic athlete, filmmaker, author of Bravey, and podcast host of Mentor Buffet. Her writing has appeared in The New York Times, Sports Illustrated, and The Atlantic, and she’s been featured in outlets like Rolling Stone and New York Magazine. Alexi co-wrote, co-directed, and starred in Tracktown and starred in Olympic Dreams with Nick Kroll. She holds the Greek national record in the 10,000 meters and competed in the 2016 Olympics.Follow Alexi on Instagram and X: @AlexiPappas🎙️ Listen to Alexi’s podcast Mentor Buffet on Apple Podcast, Spotify, and YouTube📕 Pick up a copy of Alexi’s book Bravey: Chasing Dreams, Befriending Pain, and Other Big Ideas📱 Follow The Daily Stoic Podcast on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dailystoicpodcast🎥 Watch top moments from The Daily Stoic Podcast on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@dailystoicpodcast✉️ Want Stoic wisdom delivered to your inbox daily?
