Short podcast episode (Heroic +1) in which Brian Johnson introduces Joe DeSena’s book "10 Rules for Resilience" (mental toughness for families). Brian endorses Joe’s intense, no-nonsense style, summarizes the core message: parents must model resilience because children follow actions over words, and issues a call-to-action to build 'antifragile confidence' today to be the strength the family needs. The episode also points listeners to Heroic.us for more resources.

Hi, this is Brian. Welcome back to another heroic plus one. Joe Decenta is the founder of Spartan and one of my favorite human beings on the planet. We featured wisdom from a bunch of his great books. We started with notes on Spartan Up. Then we featured Spartan Fit. Then we featured the Spartan Way. And when Joe told me he was creating a book that was all about mental toughness for families, I knew it would be awesome. The book is called 10 Rules for Resilience. Check out the notes. If you love Joe's unapologetically intense, no nonsense style and you're looking for ways to cultivate more resilience within your family, I think you'll love the book as much as I did. Today's plus one is really simple. Do you want your family to be more mentally tough? Perfect. Me too. Well, guess what? As Joe says, and I quote, we can't expect our children to be healthy and resilient humans. If we aren't, our kids ultimately aren't going to listen to what we say as much as they will follow what we do. Therefore, it's time to do the work and forge our antifragile confidence so we can have the strength for two and be the hero our families need us to be. Not someday. Today.
We hope you enjoyed today's heroic plus one. For more ancient wisdom, modern science and practical tools to help you flourish in energy, work and love, head to Heroic Us where you can get started on your heroic journey for free.
