The Real Mom Behind
The Little Stoics®
The Little Stoics® began at home.
As a mother of three little ones, I found myself drawn to the same questions many parents sit with: how to help our children navigate big feelings, make thoughtful choices, and grow into steady, resilient people.
At its core, Stoic philosophy centres on four virtues: courage, wisdom, justice, and temperance. These aren’t actually lofty ideas; they’re practical skills for moving through the world with clarity and intention.
I began to wonder what it might look like to translate those ideas into something a child could actually understand.
Something they could return to, night after night.
Something that reassured and grew with them, year after year.
The result was The Little Daily Stoic book.
A bedtime ritual designed to feel like connection, not chaos.
Because the goal was never just to create a book.
It was to create moments they remember—long after the bedtime stories end.
