The tones keep dropping. Train for what they do to you.
Mission-Based Resilience is a 7-chapter online course built by Dr. Ed Naggiar — PhD, retired US Navy SEAL — and your department has covered a seat for every member. Train stress the way you train everything else on this job: as a skill, with reps.
Your alarm system runs more calls than you do.
24-hour shifts. Sleep cut apart by tones. Calls that come home with you and don’t get talked about. The stress response that makes you good at this job — fast, locked-on, all-in — doesn’t stand down just because the shift did.
Cumulative stress is an occupational hazard in the fire service, same as smoke. This course treats it that way: not something to tough out, but something to train for — with the same seriousness you bring to every other skill that keeps you and your crew going home.
From one operator to another.
Dr. Ed Naggiar spent his career where resilience was the job — as a US Navy SEAL. He knows what shift work, adrenaline, and carrying hard calls do to a person, and he built this course for people who run toward what everyone else runs from. No lectures about bubble baths. Tools that hold under load — tested from BUD/S to the boardroom.
What you work on stays yours.
Rule one of this course is confidentiality — and it’s built in. The department provides the seat. What you do in it is your business.
Seven chapters. One mission.
A coach at the station, 24/7.
Every lesson comes with a personal AI coach — trained on Ed’s lectures, his frameworks, and his book The Suit & The SEAL. It answers the way he teaches: direct, practical, zero fluff.
It’s not Ed, and it’s not a therapist. It’s a training tool that’s awake whenever you are.
What you walk out with.
“Incredible 2 days being tested and learning from the crew at HPC. During this short period of time, I was able to gain life changing knowledge that made me look deeper into my purpose in life. Stress coping, resilience (physical, mental, emotional and spiritual), tips for deeper sleep, the values of nutrition, KIM exercises, and cognitive restructuring. To date, I could not recommend a course that touches on all aspects of life. This course is for any individual and every organization. Lean into it”
— Jacob Gorman, Fire Fighter Panama City Beach, FL
You don’t rise to the occasion. You fall to your training.
That’s true on a fireground, and it’s true at 0300 when you can’t sleep. This is that training — and your seat is already paid for. Claim it.
