About Us
Philosophy Break is a social enterprise dedicated to getting more people engaged with philosophy.
Since 2018, we've been on a mission to wrap philosophy's best ideas in a modern package to break through the noise of everyday life, encourage critical thinking, and supplement a meaningful existence.
Why? Because we believe philosophy is the antidote to a world saturated by information, and the more that people engage with philosophy, the more fulfilling their lives will be. Learn more about our thoughts on the power of philosophy here.
