This book features profiles of great men and women who have beaten the odds, and it delivers historical examples of Stoicism in action. The Obstacle Is The Way has become a cult classic among elite athletes and coaches, and the audiobook version is largely responsible for its wide adoption in the NFL, which has been covered by media outlets including Sports Illustrated and ESPN.

Donald Robertson is a psychotherapist who specializes in the treatment of anxiety with Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which has its roots in Stoicism. As Robertson notes: "CBT also happens to have the strongest evidence base, the strongest scientific support, of any modern form of psychological therapy." This book was highly recommended by the Stoic community on reddit, which is how I found it. It has great reviews, and as one reader wrote, "In my opinion, Robertson is superior to Pierre Hadot, Long, or any other writer on Stoicism because of his psychotherapy background and his ability to reach the common man."
