What Is Heroic? Come Discover Through Real Stories (in-person only event)
Ever struggled to explain what Heroic is? So have we. That's because Heroic isn't just one thing—it's a powerful integration of ancient stoic wisdom, modern positive psychology, and practical behavioral tools all working toward an audacious mission: helping 51% of humanity flourish by 2051.
But the best way to understand Heroic isn't through explanation—it's through the stories of real people living these principles daily.
A Different Kind of Meeting
This September gathering marks a pivotal shift in how we build community together. Instead of focusing on teaching and presenting, we're bringing the magic of our successful weekly roundtables to you.
Here's what makes this special:
- Less talking at you, more sharing with each other
- Real stories from real Arizonans on their heroic journeys
- Celebrating wins and learning from challenges together
- Authentic community engagement that actually builds connections
Come Prepared to Share (If You're Ready)
The heart of our roundtable format is story-sharing. If you're already part of the Heroic community, come prepared to share:
Your Hero Bar - Something significant you accomplished or overcame this week
- A fear you faced and conquered
- A difficult conversation you finally had
- A commitment you kept despite wanting to quit
- A moment you chose courage over comfort
Your Micro Moment of Awesome ✨ - A small action that made someone smile or changed a life in some tiny way
- Sometimes the smallest gestures create the biggest impact
- These moments reveal our character in action
- The ripple effects can be profound
New to Heroic? Perfect! Just come ready to listen and connect. You'll quickly see what this community is all about.
