The PTB Mindset Newsletter

A stronger mindset is built through the perspectives you return to and the practices you repeat. The PTB Mindset Newsletter brings both to your inbox through two short, connected emails each week.

Every week centres on one theme. Monday creates space to think about it differently. Friday helps you put it into practice.

Two Emails a Week

Mental Monday

Mental Monday combines real-life experiences from Michael with Stoic philosophy translated for modern life.

Drawing from experiences in sport, adversity, recovery, and everyday life, Michael explores how the week’s theme has appeared along his own path. Each edition offers an honest story and a grounded perspective readers can apply to the circumstances they are facing.

Feeling Friday

Feeling Friday carries the week’s theme from reflection into action.

Each edition offers one simple practice, exercise, or mindset tool designed to be understood quickly and applied in everyday life. The purpose is to help readers turn insight into something they can use.
