The 6-Week Mental Toughness Course That Changes Everything
Are You Mentally Tough Enough for What Life Throws at You?
A few months ago, I had to make one of the hardest admissions of my life on my podcast.
I was mentally stuck. I moved back from Amsterdam to Portland because I was languishing instead of thriving. Despite everything I teach about Stoicism and mental strength, I was struggling.
It wasn’t easy to share that story. We all want to look successful and put-together.
But here’s what I’ve learned: real mental toughness isn’t about never struggling. It’s about what you do when you’re in the struggle.
I created an episode on Mental Toughness and it got a lot of responses from my listeners. Not because I had all the answers, but because I was honest about the questions.
And that honesty changed everything.
From Languishing to Optimism: The Five Pillars That Rebuilt Me
Today, I’m in a completely different place. New apartment, early mornings, healthier choices, renewed motivation. Opportunities surfacing everywhere.
What changed? I stopped just talking about mental toughness and started systematically building it using all the tools I’ve learned from studying Stoicism and teaching on the Stoic Coffee Break podcast.
Through five specific pillars:
- Emotional Regulation – Controlling your responses instead of being hijacked by reactions
- Persistence Over Talent – Staying in the game longer than everyone else
- Reframing Failure – Turning every setback into a stepping stone
- Self-Discipline – Building strength in the boring moments no one sees
- Your Bigger Why – Connecting daily struggle to deeper purpose
This isn’t theory. These are the exact principles that pulled me out of mental quicksand and built something unshakeable inside.
Introducing: Building Your Inner Fortress
A 6-Week Mental Toughness Intensive
I’ve taken everything from that transformational episode and created a complete system for building real mental toughness.
Not the fake “just toughen up” kind.
The kind that helps you keep your head clear, your heart steady, and your feet moving – even when life punches you in the gut.
Here’s Exactly What You Get:

By the end, you’ll have a personalized user manual for your own mental strength that you’ll reference for years.

Every Tough Moment is a Brick
Marcus Aurelius said: “You have power over your mind—not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.”
Every challenging situation you face is like a brick.
Every time you choose not to quit, you lay another brick down.
Over time, you build a fortress inside yourself.
This course gives you the blueprint.
