Applying Stoicism to Stay Calm and Confident as a Tour Guide

Lately, I’ve been diving into Stoicism, and I’m curious how it could help me handle the unpredictability of leading adventure tours. Between sudden weather changes, unexpected group dynamics, or gear malfunctions, staying composed is key. For those who practice Stoicism, how do you keep a level head when things go sideways?

I’m especially interested in practical techniques like prepping mentally for the day or reframing challenges as opportunities rather than setbacks. Any advice on applying Stoic principles in high-energy, fast-paced environments? Would love to hear how others use this philosophy to stay grounded when the pressure’s on.
