Rome Event

Heroes!! Get ready to embark on an unforgettable journey in Rome! 🔥

We’re thrilled to invite you to an immersive five-day experience that blends movement, meditation, and Heroic programming against the backdrop of one of the world’s most iconic cities. Led by Brian, Michael, and renowned luminary guests, this Heroic Rome Experience will be a powerful fusion of ancient insight and personal transformation.

Each day, we’ll explore legendary sites that echo Stoic ideals and timeless truths, from the inspiring Roman Forum and Palatine Hill, where philosophers once shaped virtue and courage, to the mighty Colosseum and the Pantheon. Together, we’ll engage in reflective practices, stringing together “Masterpiece Days” focused on excellence, inner strength, and authentic connection.

We’ll also experience the vibrancy of modern Rome—strolling the Spanish Steps, savoring flavors in Piazza Navona, and tossing coins in the Trevi Fountain. And in true Heroic spirit, we’ll ground our journey with a powerful visit to the Catacombs, leaning into memento mori and reflecting on life’s resilience.

Join us in this once-in-a-lifetime event to deepen your Heroic journey and connect with a community of kindred spirits in the heart of Rome.

The Heroic Rome Experience: A wisdom packed, community filled, once in a lifetime transformational adventure in Rome, Italy!

"THE MOST IMPORTANT APP ON MY PHONE. HANDS DOWN."

— Joseph Okes, 5-star review

5 days. In Rome. Let's Go!

Putting ancient wisdom into practice. ✈️

Our enriched five-day Rome itinerary will integrate movement, meditation, programming, guest luminaries, and a focus on ancient wisdom to create a journey of both discovery and reflection.

With Brian, Michael, and special luminary guests, we’ll explore the heart of Rome, a city that has stood as a testament to resilience, wisdom, and philosophical pursuit for millennia.

We’ll explore ancient sites that echo Stoic ideals, such as the Roman Forum, where philosophers and leaders once gathered to debate and explore the nature of virtue, courage, and reason.

We’ll climb Palatine Hill, with the ruins of the imperial palace, imagining the life of Marcus Aurelius as he balanced the demands of leadership with his commitment to Stoic thought.

We’ll reflect on mortality and inner strength as we explore the Colosseum, an architectural marvel that hosted displays of resilience and courage above (and below!) the ground.

We’ll tour the famous Pantheon, a masterpiece of design representing unity and harmony within the cosmos.

We’ll people watch on The Spanish Steps, toss coins into Rome’s famous Trevi Fountain, and feast on Italian flavors in the lively Piazza Navona, taking in the artists, street performers and beautiful fountains, like Bernini’s famous Fountain of the Four Rivers.

We’ll lean into memento mori as we visit Rome’s ancient underground Catacombs, with miles of burial tunnels and chapels.

We’ll visit sites like Capitoline Hill, where the statue of Marcus Aurelius stands as a testament to Stoic virtues like wisdom, patience, and civic duty.

Throughout our days in Rome, we’ll take time to immerse ourselves in intentional daily practice — movement, meditation, reflection, inspiration, wisdom, brand new Heroic content— forging excellence individually and as a group as we string Masterpiece Days together.

No, you do not need to be a certified Heroic coach to attend the workshop training.

How is the workshop training different from being a Heroic ambassador?
