I don’t just teach this—I live it. I know what it’s like to fight battles, both in the world and in your own head. I’ve been knocked down, questioned everything, and had to rebuild. I don’t believe in empty positivity or passive therapy. I believe in action. In doing the work. In taking control of the only thing that’s ever truly yours—your response to life.

I’m Roger Johnston, a combat veteran, a practicing Stoic for 25 years, and a licensed clinical social worker with over 14 years of experience. My background is in philosophy, sociology, and clinical therapy, but more importantly—I've been where you are. I walk this path too. My job isn't to fix you. It's to show you how to break the chains, root deep, and rise stronger than before.
