Brian Johnson, philosopher, founder and CEO, has spent the better part of the last 20 years studying ancient wisdom and the modern science that supports it. His new book, Areté: Activate Your Heroic Potential, partners that wisdom with the practices that help people integrate it into their daily lives.

Described as “more wisdom in less time,” Areté is a collection of 451 potentially life changing ideas, presented in easy-to-digest microchapters. The book mirrors Brian’s popular online app, Heroic.us, a self-development platform that helps us become the heroes we are meant to be.

In this episode, Brian Johnson speaks with Sean Fargo about what it means to be a hero, and why Areté is the culmination of his life’s work.
