Drawing of a barred prison window set in a stone wall

An AI coach built from the founder’s 54 years of living through every kind of crisis, prison three times among them.

Drawing of a crescent moon above a closed eye

A 22-day coma after a second horrific motorcycle crash.

Drawing of a heart with a bandage across it

Shot, stabbed, lied to and dumped on, and always coming out better than they went in.

Open oak shelves holding a worn leather book with a bison on the cover, a glass carafe, stacked bowls, riding gloves and a camping mug

It tells you how to run straight into your first storm, in the voice of someone who survived prison three times, a 22-day coma and being shot, and came out better every time.

Five first storms, and the first thing the Bison says

Sample. The pictures are generated and the replies are written to show the voice. They are not real people or real talks.

    Walk out slow. Today you only have to get through the next hour, then the one after it.

  • Generated picture: a folded blanket, the bison book and a wooden crutch beside a bright windowFirst serious injury

    The body mends on its own clock. Your job is to stop arguing with the calendar.

  • Generated picture: a sealed envelope, a single key, two mugs and the bison book on a wooden tableFirst betrayal
    Sample reply

    It will land like a fall. Get up in the morning anyway, and keep your word to yourself.

    Sample reply

    Boxes, a half-empty room, a lot of quiet. Pack the one room you can face today.

    Nobody is ready for this. Eat something, call one person, and let the rest of today be small.
