Taming Work Stress: A Manly Guide to Help You Conquer, Not Be Conquered.

WHAT THE MEN WHO read the JOURNAL ARE SAYING:

“Thank you for making me think
and finding the root cause of not progressing. I can now focus clearly on addressing this and unlocking the value that comes with that! Not a bad result for a casual eletter! .”

“I don’t think you realise what a massive impact you are having on the lives of men on a daily/granular level; needs to be said!”

Joe Sekhon

always enjoy reading the journal - punchy, pacey, funny and relevant. It resonates to me as a bloke, but can also imagine women getting good insight too.

it can often contain practical tips and also evoke a sense of two-way empathy, often Anthony makes a point about something I've noticed and it's cool to know others are experiencing similar challenges.

I like it as unlike some self-development circulars it doesn't try and make you feel bad about what you're achieving or not achieving, before hitting you with a solution. Yes, The Whole Man Academy offers paid coaching, but it's never a hard sell.”

“Being from the United States, the WMA journal comes first thing at 5am right when I am kicking back with my coffee before work. To be able to start my day with like minded individuals as well as the personal stories from Anthony helps me realize there are strong men out there like me and we have a duty to help spread the positive energy. As the WMA is all about "The World needs Strong Men".”
