The Tao of Sto

Expected launch date: November 2026

Stories, Insights, & Exercises to Help You Cultivate a Life of Resilience.

Stosaic, along with Ryan McGinnis, author of Terrestrial and the Xavier Greene Thriller Series, is proud to present The Tao of Sto, an anthology where each story brings one of the Seven Core Competencies to life: Self-Mastery, Trust Building, Ownership Mindset, Strategic Adaptability, Alignment of Purpose, Insight Integration, and Constructive Momentum.

Each story follows characters who turn to Stoic principles in extraordinary circumstances. A hiker lost in a blizzard. Two former allies, now enemies, forced to work together to save an island from a hurricane. A search-and-rescue team racing to reach a family trapped as a wildfire closes in from all sides. In each tale, the characters draw on Stoic philosophy to face these harrowing situations and find their footing.

Every story is followed by analysis from Stosaic co-founder Kelvin “Chief” Brim and exercises to help you apply its competency in your own life. Whether you read for the drama, the lessons, or both, The Tao of Sto offers a way to live more resiliently and handle hard better.
