Who's it for?

For first responders and the military

Pressure is the job.
Resilience is the skill.

Stress training for the people who run toward the call — built by a Navy SEAL officer with a PhD in how people perform under stress, and already used by sheriff's offices, fire departments, corrections and federal agencies.

For companies and the people who lead them

Stress costs.
Resilience pays.

Lost focus, sick days, mistakes and good people leaving — stress shows up in the numbers. We train your people to handle pressure before it becomes a problem, with an online course, a 24/7 AI coach and a live session every month.

For anyone ready for more

Become the best
version of yourself.

Stuck, stretched thin, or chasing something bigger? Learn to handle pressure the way elite teams do. It's the same training Dr. Ed Naggiar teaches sheriff's offices, fire departments and business teams, built for one person.

Why it matters

The call ends. The stress doesn't.

Your body's alarm system was built for thirty seconds of danger. Your people run it through twelve-hour shifts, then take it home. Left untrained, it wears down sleep, health, families and careers.

Why it matters

Stress shows up in the numbers.

It looks like sick days, mistakes, short tempers and good people leaving. Most programs step in after the damage is done. We train people to handle pressure before it turns into a problem.

Why it matters

Nobody teaches you how to handle stress.

So most people push through it, numb it or avoid it — and it costs them sleep, health, relationships and goals. Resilience is a skill. Like any skill, it can be trained.

Coach · 24/7
Froze on a call last night. Never happened before.
You didn't freeze. You hit the top of your zone. Walk me through the thirty seconds before the tones — what was your body already doing?
Hadn't eaten since noon. Third call of the shift.
That's the physical pillar, not a character flaw. Let's build your emergency quad chart for it.
Coach · 24/7
Board meeting tomorrow and I can't switch off.
That's your stress response showing up a day early. Let's play the tape forward: what's the worst realistic outcome, and what would you do about it?
We lose the account. Then I'd call them myself.
Good. Now you have a plan instead of a worry. Write it down, then get some sleep — that's the physical pillar.
Coach · 24/7
I'm 45. The job's fine, but I feel stuck.
Stuck usually means your plan stopped matching what you want. Let's look at the four pillars — which one have you neglected the longest?
Honestly? All of them. Mostly sleep.
Then we start there. One small goal for this week — let's write it as a SMART goal.

The method

Four pillars. One skill you keep training.

About fifteen percent physical and eighty-five percent psychological. You learn them in order and practice them every week.

15% physical85% psychological
Know your zonePerformance vs. stress
Low The zone Overload Performance ↑ Stress →

The science is the stress response itself — stimulus and response, the amygdala and the hypothalamus, what cortisol does to your body. The training is what you do about it: play the tape forward, fill in the emergency quad chart, name how you're coping, and change how you see the stressor.

01

Physical

Sleep, movement, nutrition — the body that carries the rest.

02

Mental

How you think under pressure: stimulus and response, playing the tape forward.

03

Emotional

Knowing how you cope — and replacing what isn't working.

04

Spiritual

Purpose, meaning and a personal creed.

As Correctional Officers working in the prison system, we are at the pinnacle when it comes to stress levels. Ed's system gives you a logical and systematic process to apply to any stressor you might encounter, and develop a plan to manage or relieve it.

Ed's program is a life changer, but you must be disciplined and aggressive if it is going to work for you. There are no miracles here - just a well balanced, well planned, HARD way of exercising and living that will pay off for the rest of your life.

Questions chiefs askQuestions leaders askQuestions people ask

Q1
Who sees what my people write?

No one at your department. Leaders see participation and progress as numbers, never names. What people tell the coach stays private, and nothing goes in a personnel file.

Q2
What does it cost?

$20 per person, per month on an annual agreement. Departments training 100 people or more pay $10 per person, per month.

Yes. Start with a shift, a station or a command and add people as you go.

What happens in the live session?

One hour with a Board Certified Coach on your crew's real stressors — the ones from your check-in results, not a generic slideshow. Recorded for anyone who missed it.

$20 per person, per month on an annual agreement. Companies training 100 people or more pay $10 per person, per month.

Yes. The same tools work for a parent, a manager, a business owner or anyone going through a hard season. You'll train alongside people from all walks of life.

Q2
What's the difference between Portal and Portal + Live?

Portal ($20 a month) gives you the course, the 24/7 AI coach, weekly training and the member community. Portal + Live ($80 a month) adds one or two live group sessions a month with a Board Certified Coach, and coach chat with replies within one business day.

Q3
How much time does it take?

About ten minutes a week. The course is self-paced, so you can move faster when you have the time.

Q4
Can I cancel?

Yes. Membership is billed monthly, and you can cancel any time from your account settings.

Is this therapy?

No. It's training, not therapy or medical care. If you're in crisis, call or text 988, or call 911 in an emergency.
