About Me

Welcome to my corner of serenity and strength, where the ancient wisdom of Stoicism meets the bustling, ever-changing landscape of our modern lives. My name is Athena Valor, and I'm thrilled to share my journey and work with you.


At the tender age of 43, life has been a tapestry woven with varied experiences, each thread colored with lessons of resilience, joy, and the pursuit of wisdom. Married to my soulmate and a mother to a spirited child, my life is a beautiful blend of love, chaos, and the quest for tranquility amidst the storm.


Welcome to my little nook in the vast digital world, a place where ancient wisdom illuminates the path through our modern maze. I'm Athena Valor, your fellow traveler on this journey toward understanding and embracing the principles of Stoicism in our everyday lives. 


My fascination with Stoicism isn't just academic; it's a deeply personal quest that began in the colorful pages of philosophy and history books in my family's library. As a child, I was captivated by the stoic ideals portrayed by Epictetus, Seneca, and Marcus Aurelius, not as distant historical figures, but as mentors guiding me through life's complexities. This early love for the humanities paved the way for my formal studies, where I delved into philosophy and psychology, eager to uncover how these ancient teachings could solve modern dilemmas.


Armed with knowledge and an unwavering belief in Stoicism's practicality, I've ventured into the world, wearing multiple hats as an educator, consultant, and mentor. My mission has always been clear: to showcase Stoicism not as an abstract theory but as a living, breathing practice that can fortify our resilience, sharpen our leadership skills, and enhance our decision-making prowess.


Writing, for me, is a conversation. Through my books, I strive to strike a balance between scholarly depth and the simplicity needed for daily application. My goal is to offer you not just a book but a toolkit for developing the mental strength and emotional resilience essential for navigating life's storms.


Yet, my engagement with Stoicism extends beyond the written word. As a speaker and workshop leader, I've had the joy of connecting with diverse audiences, sharing the stoic vision of a life marked by serenity, strength, and wisdom. These interactions, whether face-to-face or in the vibrant forums of online communities, are where the magic happens—where philosophy transcends the theoretical and becomes a shared experience.


In this space, we explore the confluence of ancient philosophy and contemporary challenges, seeking insights that light our way to a more fulfilling, virtuous existence. Join me in this exploration. Together, let's discover how the timeless wisdom of Stoicism can illuminate our path in this ever-changing world.


Warmly,

Athena Valor
