For anyone ready for more
Become the best
version of yourself.
Stuck, stretched thin, or chasing something bigger? Learn to handle pressure the way elite teams do, on your own schedule. It's the same training HPC teaches sheriff's offices, fire departments and business teams, built for one person.
For companies and the people who lead them
Stress costs.
Resilience pays.
Lost focus, sick days, mistakes and good people leaving — stress shows up in the numbers. We train your people to handle pressure before it becomes a problem: on-demand training that never stops, a 24/7 AI coach and a live session every month.
For first responders, the military and public service
Pressure is the job.
Resilience is the skill.
Stress training for the people who run toward the call and the agencies that serve the public — built by a Navy SEAL officer with a PhD in how people perform under stress, and already used by sheriff's offices, fire departments, corrections and federal agencies.
What's included
One program. Three ways in.
Everyone trains with the same method, the same coach and the same weekly training. What changes is who it's set up for and how you pay.
For anyone who wants to be better under pressure
At work, at home, in your health, or in whatever comes next.

Trusted by 40+ agencies and businesses
Including the U.S. Navy, Homeland Security and Florida Fish and WildlifeWhy it matters
The call ends. The stress doesn't.
Your body's alarm system was built for thirty seconds of danger. Your people run it through twelve-hour shifts, then take it home. Left untrained, it wears down sleep, health, families and careers.
Why it matters
Stress shows up in the numbers.
It looks like sick days, mistakes, short tempers and good people leaving. Most programs step in after the damage is done. We train people to handle pressure before it turns into a problem.
Why it matters
Nobody teaches you how to handle stress.
So most people push through it, numb it or avoid it — and it costs them sleep, health, relationships and goals. Resilience is a skill. Like any skill, it can be trained.
Up before the alarm. The day is already running.
The call. The one that stays with you.
Replaying it. Your body still thinks it's 09:15.
Home, still running hot. Short with the people who matter.
Awake. The next shift starts in four hours.
Inbox before coffee. The day is already running.
The meeting that goes sideways.
Still replaying it. Focus is gone for the afternoon.
Home, still switched on. Short with the people who matter.
Awake, running numbers. The alarm goes off in four hours.
Up before the alarm, already behind.
Work, family, bills — all at once.
Running on caffeine. Still replaying this morning.
Home, but not really present.
Awake, wondering if this is as good as it gets.
"Life is a perishable skill. You need to train for it continuously."
Dr. Ed Naggiar · Mission-Based Resilience, Chapter 1
Our Founder
A Navy SEAL officer with a PhD in how people perform under stress.
Dr. Ed Naggiar spent twenty years as a U.S. Navy SEAL officer and served as a human test subject at the Navy Experimental Diving Unit, studying the limits of the body in and out of the water. He has taught resilience to drilling crews, correctional officers, SWAT teams, firefighters, Fortune 500 executives and incarcerated men working through addiction. Mission-Based Resilience is the method he teaches in person — now online, for teams and for individuals.

Everything in one place.
One login opens your weekly training, the vault, an AI coach trained on Ed's teaching and the live sessions — any time of day, on any phone or computer.

Every first responder has a zone where stress sharpens them instead of flattening them. This week: find yours before the next call. Two questions, five minutes each.
Every leader has a zone where pressure sharpens them instead of flattening them. This week: find yours before your next big meeting. Two questions, five minutes each.

How it works
Up and running in about a month.
No long procurement and no IT project. One agreement, and one link for your people.
One agreement: $20 per person, per month — $10 at 300 people or more — for 12 months.
One agreement for 12 months, priced by headcount: the more people you train, the lower the rate.
We build your private space and a check-in questionnaire written for your organization.
You send one link. Your people sign up in minutes, on any phone or computer.
New training every week, on their own schedule. The coach any time, and a live session every month. Each quarter you get a progress report — numbers, not names.
No software and nothing for IT to approve. It's a web link that works on a phone.
Leaders see how many people joined and how they're progressing — never anyone's answers or conversations.
What people tell the coach stays with them. Nothing goes in a personnel file.

The method
Four pillars. One skill you keep training.
Not all stress is bad. With too little, you stall. With too much, you overload. In between is the zone, where people do their best work. The training teaches you to find your zone, get into it and stay there.
The science is the stress response itself — stimulus and response, the amygdala and the hypothalamus, what cortisol does to your body. The training is what you do about it: play the tape forward, fill in the emergency quad chart, name how you're coping, and change how you see the stressor.
Four paddles, one boat. When all four pillars pull together at the same pace, you hold your heading to the mission.
Let one pillar drag (here, physicalmentalemotionalspiritual) and the boat turns off course, no matter how hard the other three pull. That's why you train all four, every week.
Physical
Sleep, movement, nutrition — the body that carries the rest.
Mental
How you think under pressure: stimulus and response, playing the tape forward.
Emotional
Knowing how you cope — and replacing what isn't working.
Spiritual
Purpose, meaning and a personal creed.
Untrained, the space between what happens and what you do is paper thin, so you react on emotion. Training expands that space. Inside it you have time to think, pick the right tool and respond on purpose — and that's the goal of every tool in the program.

Mission based resiliency training has had a real impact in the personal and professional lives of our command personnel. We are excited about expanding this program and making it a way of life at the Bay County Sheriffs Office.
As Correctional Officers working in the prison system, we are at the pinnacle when it comes to stress levels. Ed's system gives you a logical and systematic process to apply to any stressor you might encounter, and develop a plan to manage or relieve it.
Dr. Naggiar realized how important this journey was to me and spent countless hours preparing me for what was the biggest professional challenge of my career.
Incredible 2 days being tested and learning from the crew at HPC. … This course is for any individual and every organization.
… we figured out that we could not do team skills training until we did individual skills training. … since the training, and we don't attribute it all to the training, we have had the largest month we have ever had.
As we have made strides in improving the fitness of our workforce, we have seen a tangible benefit in gaining control of health insurance premiums …
HPC is the best "inside out" program that I have ever read or heard about.
Ed's program is a life changer, but you must be disciplined and aggressive if it is going to work for you. There are no miracles here - just a well balanced, well planned, HARD way of exercising and living that will pay off for the rest of your life.
At 39, I was a 240 pound fat guy with two little girls. I made a commitment NOT to be a fat 50 year old with teenagers. … Ed's program is a life changer, but you must be disciplined and aggressive if it is going to work for you.
I continue to learn and understand things that make us more resilient to ALL aspects of our lives like raising a family, organization skills, and expanding our boundaries by setting goals that are outside our comfort zone.
I am proud to say that I lost a total of 48 pounds … and have not only kept it off but am stronger, mentally and physically than any other time in my life.
… I was able to gain life changing knowledge that made me look deeper into my purpose in life.
